Come Back Winter

Today, December 30th, 2010 it is 60 outside!  Tomorrow we are suppose to have thunderstorms.  While I am thankful that there is no ice or bad roads or a city shut down because of a blizzard, I should wouldn’t mind winter to return. I love the light and shadows that winter provides and the colors.  I guess I should be careful what I wish for but the snow a few weeks back was so pretty and the frosty morns give me good reason to smuggle my camera under my coat while taking Bear for a walk.  Did you know that Bear is shedding because it has gotten warmer.  I have almost brushed out a full “sweater” of Bear fur.

Tennessee Nature Photographer: Raindrops in Black and White

The winter, I hate it.  I mean I hate the cold and gray and they way my body feels and my mind.  But…. and this is a big but, all that dull, gray and **sometimes**  bright light creates moody and interesting images.  The other morning there was rain and cold and gray.  I went out and embraced it.  Didn’t like it, but I did and am happy with the results!
