half my living room windows are blocked by snow that had accumulated since noon today. it was cold and windy and snowy. i tried to catch snow to shoot them but the wind just blew them away. so what to do?
watching the snow as it accumulated right there in front of me, there were some flakes that latched on the glass window and some stayed long enough to be photographed. these twin flakes got blown soon after i pressed the shutter and then it was gone, replaced by other snowflakes. there was one pretty snowflake, perfect and not quite like this, but it was gone before i had the chance to press the shutter.
this was taken using a 10x macro filter and cropped in-camera.
@espyetta - thank you, MB. it was so nerve wracking to get one. one of these days i'll try that inverted lens thingie to get a more detailed pic.
@bobfoto - wish i could send all these snow to my friends in the tropics. my love affair with snow hasn't waned, it's my love affair with the cold that's gone bye-bye. thank you, jason.
@k1w1 - with your macro lens, you can take a much better one than this. i have to do a lot of practice and must learn that inverted lens thingie. :-) thank you, my good friend. wishing you and the family a good christmas and a happy 2014.
