Winter contrast photo for sale

Marnie here again. While looking at the photos that Tim did of Webster Park this past week on my phone they looked like regular old pictures of snow and trees. I mean, how many pictures can you capture of snow and trees? Then I kept looking at one on my computer, and you become more and more engrossed with it the longer you look. I mean: look at this detail when you take the time to zoom in!

So after becoming mesmerized I did a bit of dodge and burn on the photo and put it up on Fine Art America where you get a satisfaction guarantee on all purchases. Once again Tim has shown me how beautiful simple images can be. You see photography of canyons and mountains that are stunning because they are in stunning places, but it takes a lot of talent to take a stunning image in Webster Park in the middle of winter.

Gosnell Big Woods Preserve

Good morning, Marnie here! Doing the apprentice photographer thing with Tim this morning, and trying to walk the dog at the same time. This Feb 3rd we went out to Gosnell Big Woods Preserve in Webster, NY. The temperature was 18 degrees, and weather.com claims it felt like 1 degree. While in the woods trails it wasn't bad as the trees sheltered us from the wind, but while on the field it was chillier. There had been a recent defrost before this freeze so the trail was pure ice in many places. I had the Canon 6d mark ii with the Sigma 70-200 lens plus the 2x tele converter, and the dog was strapped to my belt. I did not use a tripod or monopod today as it is hard to juggle the dog with them. We unfortunately did not see much in the way of wildlife. When we first arrived at 9am two other cars were there, both with dogs. they all quickly put their dogs on leashes, and headed out without problem. While walking through the woods we did encounter one dog off their leash, but it went back to the owner without problem.
