snow covered forest Photo

Photographer’s Note

Forest covered in snow. It was very quiet and peaceful, and we truly enjoyed our solitude in the middle of it all.
Hope you like it!

Hello Behran,

You've captured a beautiful snow scene in Gaithersburg, of all places. Living in Virginia, we got pounded by the same snow storm, but you have certianly recorded this one to cool you off during the heat of next summer. Very good composition in a photo that works beautifully in Black and White.

Are you working in semiconductors at NIST? I am a physicist, and I was there to give a seminar a couple of years ago.

Hi Behrang!
Creio que mesmo a cores o efeito seria o mesmo pelas condições climáticas da foto. Gosto do padrão criado pelas arvores entre o caminho.

Greetings.

Hi Behrang, it's scenes such as this one that make me miss the snow, and wish I could strap on my snowshoes and go for a walk. This path into the middle of the forest is very inviting. The contrast between the trees and snow excellent.

Thanks, John

Hi Behrang. I guess you didn't see that much snow when you lived in Texas! I tried similar shots around my house but I didn't get anything this good. It was nice that the wind didn't blow like crazy to blow the snow off. I can feel the tranquil beauty of these woods. tfs Behrang!

Hello, Behrang!
the place looks really calm and quiet. And You have snow here... There was always snow in my place in th winter, but this year... disaster! No snow, no skiing! Have a nice time playing snowballs!

greg

Hi Behrang,

This is a great contrast to the last image I looked at. You have achieved a very pleasing result with what is a difficult subject.

Best regards,
Paul.

Now here's a different post from you Behrang- a B&W (naturally occuring by the looks of it).

That's why winter is my favorite time of year- the snow blacketing the trees, the way the snow seems to muffle all the sounds.
The most simple of compositions- yet very effective.

Nice work Behrang,
