I saw the light on these icicles on the tree, and I just had to take the shot.
I am quickly becoming one of those annoying people who says, "Wait, stop! The light! Look at the light! I need to take a picture."
Other (normal) people are so far pretty forgiving, but their patience can't last forever. And I'm pretty sure that this disease is incurable.

Looks cold too, but I don't think even faith healing will help you.
ReplyDeleteThe lighting is gorgeous...also love the hints of snowflakes falling in the background!
ReplyDeleteMy husband hates going out walking w/ me and the camera LOL (but I still make him)! :)
What are all the spots from?
ReplyDeleteI find them pretty distracting.
Also, I feel the left icicle should be more out of focus or more in focus.
I know that at this point you can't bring it into focus, but maybe try playing with the gaussian blur.
I just feel that it's defined enough to to draw your attention without satisfying it.
Blurring it a little more may or may not help with it.
What I do really like is the bright ice on the dark background. It really makes it pop.

Isn't the Photographer Addiction Affliction grand? Don't ever find a cure, please!
ReplyDeleteGreat catch and angle. I like the DOF on it and the black background. I've been away too, so I also looked at your ski trip photos. Great job on those too. I really liked the shot from the lift with the sun and the shadows and the colors. Nice work, as usual!
ReplyDeleteWith results like this, I hope it is indeed incurable! Great shot, I love the detail, and the subtle light on each tiny needle-leaf.
ReplyDelete(also, if 'normal' means not seeing the light, I much prefer to be abnormal :-))
The light on the icicles is great and I love the snowflakes in the background.
ReplyDeleteI love seeing everything through a photographer's eye, and I want to never, never change.
This is a fantastic shot! Wonderful detail and background. Its very fresh and interesting to see.
ReplyDeleteI have found I get on everyone's nerves because they are walking a block or a 1/2 mile ahead of me always. I am constantly stopping at looking a a reflection in a car bumper or a blade of grass or an alley, LOL everything distracts me. My daughter says who wants pictures of a blade of grass from all four sides, I say ME!
I think this image is incredibly sharp! This was the first thing that came to my mind when I saw it :). I love it.
ReplyDeleteI like everything about this one. It's very nicely framed and I love the falling snow in the background.
