Sketching Snowfall at Twilight

November 20, 2014November 24, 2014 | drawandshoot

The twilight comes so early. The origami days will keep folding up tighter for another month. A month before the light begins to stretch back out. And with a bit of snow on the landscape it doesn’t seem so long, really.

[These photographs were made at dusk by ‘sketching’ the landscape using long exposures and camera movement.]

Winter Dance

Here we go. The first real snow came today. I couldn’t resist going out to watch the landscape brighten as the snow sifted down. It wasn’t too cold, either. Just warm enough for fingerless mittens and standing still while the chickadees dance at your fingertips.

The Edge of Winter

Yesterday – A snowfall and a pond icing over. You can see a little bit of open water in the dark areas – Winter is closing in.

Passing glimpses of yesterday’s snowfall – the first of the autumn. This morning the temperature has been creeping up and the short-lived snow has been replaced by rain.
