This winter seems to be very heavy on images of highways from me. I have already shot this place a few times, but never in winter. Since winters seem to get warmer and with less snow with each year, after new snow has covered the mountains I rushed to capture Hemus Highway. Unfortunately, there was not as much snow as I anticipated, so I might return to this place one more time :)

A winter full moon night in Banff national park after a severe snow storm. There are still open water sections on the lake and the ice is thin. This is my first perspective blending artwork, so don't be surprised about the size of the moon, cause it is what your eyes can see instead of what the camera can capture.
The clouds above the tombolo on Lake Superior look like rays spreading across the sky. Winter, Cook County, Minnesota.
Shot with a 3-stop nd grad and a 10-stop Singh-Ray Mor-Slo filter. Love this filter!

When I was visiting Rochester NY someone described the winters there as "gray skies, brown grass, and the occassional barn." It created an image in my mind that I wanted to capture - this is the result.

MUST VIEWED LARGE!!
Same place and area as the previous posting but without Mark ( code.dude ) standing there and at a lower perspective, I had to take two images with different exposures because of the hight contrasts one of the sky and one of the ground and merged them together in PS! No filters used!
There is a privacy about it which no other season gives you.... In spring, summer and fall people sort of have an open season on each other; only in the winter, in the country, can you have longer, quiet stretches when you can savor belonging to yourself. Ruth Stout

Panoramic stitch of Kabelvag, Norway, after a snow storm, late afternoon light.
It was a warm day today in California, but because of this year's drought, many trees are already turning brown, 2 months early.
Warning: I will shamelessly use the same Game of Thrones inspired title in a few more uploads in the coming months.
By and by Pooh and Piglet came along. Pooh was telling Piglet in a singing voice that it didn’t seem to matter, if he didn’t get any fatter; and Piglet was wondering how long it would be before his haycorn came up.
“Look, Pooh!” said Piglet suddenly.
“There’s something in one of the Pine trees.”
“So there is!” said Pooh. “There’s an Animal.”
Piglet took Pooh’s arm, in case Pooh was frightened.

The Greylag Goose (also spelled Graylag in the United States), Anser anser, is a bird with a wide range in the Old World. It is the type species of the genus Anser.
It was in pre-Linnean times known as the Wild Goose ("Anser ferus"). This species is the ancestor of domesticated geese in Europe and North America. Flocks of feral birds derived from domesticated birds are widespread.
