The Quiet Picture

Finding my voice in the silence of nature

Miscalculation

Category: waterfall,winter

Water thru ice - converted to b&w because I didn't like the muddy yellow colour of the waterThe scenery looked frightfully bad after the warm temperatures earlier this week, so I didn’t even take the camera with me yesterday when I went for a walk. I did some scouting instead and hiked to the Kvarnsjön lake to look at the creek running from it and found a lot of open water and very nice ice decoration around. So today’s project was photographing all that, except it was snowing when I woke up. Needless to say that all that beautiful clear ice was now decidedly less so. Already when I was taking the pictures, I knew it was all bad and sure enough I trashed the bulk of them. Just an excercise in composition.

Oh don’t I wish I had relied on Kvarnsjön to produce like it always does, and taken the camera with me yesterday…

    Sounds quite familiar. Bad weather, scouting and trashing bunch of pictures…
