It’s about to get extra hot here in New Jersey for a few days, so I went looking for a nice, cool picture of winter. I found this in the “Winter” tags on Flickr. It’s a nice shot. Good example of how hard it can be to take pictures of snow, too. The snow on the left side of the river is a little bit overexposed/blown out, but that’s a trade-off you need to make to get the river to come out well exposed. It’s hard to believe just how much light reflects off snow…

Since it is still really hot around Jersey, I decided to look through some winter photos on Flickr. This one stuck out. I like the way the tree in the foreground kind of frames the picture. Nice composition. You can really see where the light falls off underneath the tree, too.
