WC#422 - Brrr

by Gary Minish

Gallery: Weekly ChallengePosted March 7, 2010108 views5 comments
I have thousands of photos that fit this challenge but I happened to have one in particular that I had titled "Brrr" so I thought it would be a good one to start with.

Heavily frosted willows with ice fog as a background. Taken on Thompson Pass, Alaska in the last light of the day at approximately -25°F.

Sony DSC-F707, ISO-100, f5.0, 1/200

Nice photograph Gary. The heavy frost make the brush look like coral. I also like the view of another repeating line of frosted brush in the BG.

Very other (or maybe under) worldly, especially the larger image. The hints of pinks and purples really add to the mood of the image. Really nice!
