This was the scene in our neighborhood the day after the big snow storm hit us. The sun was out and the skies were clear creating a beautiful scene that I wanted to try and capture with my camera. Sure, the fence in the bottom of the picture is not ideal, but I was not yet ready to venture out of the house more than a few feet.
There was no “magic” photograph needed to create this image. I applied a slight crop to remove some of the unimportant details on the left and right side. Unlike most of my snow photographs from yesterday, the 7D got the white balance spot on for this scene. The majority of my time was spent tagging and titling the picture in Lightroom.
A self-proclaimed tech-geek, I enjoy anything powered by batteries or electricity. I'm not happy until I understand the full potential of any new gadget I get my hands on....
