Mirror in the Snow 1

Gallery: LandscapePosted January 2, 201055 views2 comments

Got a project shooting this campsite up in the middle of nowhere, during each of the seasons. So I went up there yesterday just to take a look around. In one of the small ponds there was this open patch of water that had yet to be frozen over. It just stood out to me as a mirror in a blanket of ice and snow, so I shot a bunch of reflections. Anyway top white is obviously blown out in this version, any C&C welcomed... ISO200, 1/160th and f8.0. Shot it with a lot of different settings and angles. Larger image posted also. Thanks!

I like the reflections but I think the comp is a little too tight and would like to see more of the top shoreline to put the reflections in context. Do you have one where you pulled back some?

Hi Barry, thanks. Yes, many... some are due for the M&N with a nice campsite in the BG. I chose this first 'cause it seemed like the water was calmest. I'll add another from further back. Here, this one has the top cropped, but gives some more perspective maybe.
