Snowed In Photo | TrekEarth

Photographer’s Note

Stormy Day here with winds at 40mph here on the Lake I live on. So , yep here I am digging out winter in Vermont again. :o) But funny thing about that is, right now its snowing in Vermont and most of Ontario. Infact as I right this I see now flurries all over the place out my window so I guess winter isn't over yet! :o(

Anyhow this is just a barn I found along a roadside I took the photo out the window as my daughter was driving , on her way to work. I cloned out the road we were on but otherwise did nothing to the photo.

Hi Donna,

Nice winter scene, I guess until next year will just see that on pictures... Today we had flurry here all day, but all will be gone soon.
Nicelly framed, composed. I guess a little contrast added on PP would enhance the nice barn colors.

Best Regards,

Flavia Soares

Donna,
Nice winter scene. This is a very relaxing shot to see this barn nestled in snow. I live in Florida where it was 85 today, this looks very refreshing.
The lighting and colors are great with nice sharpness and detail.
TFS,
Asa

Hi Donna,
Another lovely Vermont winter landscape with warm chrisp colors and stunning details to this old beauty. I like how the little tower has been remodeled and stands out on the older barn.
Regards, Tom

Hello Donna,

March 19th you had all that snow; It's a compelling shot, and although it could not have been too enjoyable, you've at least recorded for antiquity. Excellent composition for a shot "out the window" of a car. With the deep red paint on the barn, it is somewhat evocative of photos of the Norwegian hinterland, sent in by Pablo Minto.

Regards,

Bulent

Hello Donna,
I notice with many of the North American barns they have this small tower... Any idea what they were for?
Good point of view with a good angle on the structure...
This goes to Barns of the world theme!

Hi Donna!

You take pictures of one the most interesting place in the Usa, in my opinion, the Northeast area.

I like the way you have composed the image, and the almost monochromatic colours, in contrast one to the other.

Thank you so much for your kind words about my last picture!

Cheers!
Miguel

Hi Donna,
Well composed with a well thought out foreground proportion of snow. You made the most of the light here and avoided undue glare from the snow. This is a good example of successful photography using a minimum of sky in the scene...I have often travelled through here after renting a car in Montreal and winding through Vermont and Maine to my mother's farm in the St. John River Valley of New Brunswick. Stowe is a great place to visit, though I have only been through in the autumn. Have a good week.
