Winter Sunrise

Winter can be long and cold in Minnesota.  Blizzards and subzero weather make it difficult to get outside.  The days are short.  Sunrise is just before 8am and sunset is at 4:30pm.   I do have to admit that the big snowstorms we’ve had lately and  the late sunrises have made for some great photography.  This past week was exceptional

Another snowstorm is scheduled for tonight into tomorrow morning.  Looks like I will have more photographic opportunities

Catching Up

February has past.  March is almost over.  I’ve neglected posting photos over the last several weeks.  Partly because my hard drive crashed and I had to install a new one.  This process was not as simple as I had hoped.  I still have to retrieve photos and documents from the old one.   Luckily the drive is not completely dead and I have a back up of everything.

Here’s a look at what I’ve been photographing recently.

Ice…lots of it in various forms.

Ice and boats.

Snow, tree, pine cone.  I’m sensing a theme here.

How about a new theme.  Sunrises, super blue blood moon and a full moon?

And best of all, a photo before the father-daughter ball.

I’m looking forward to spring and the hopes of warmer temperatures, green grass and no more ice and snow.  Until then…
