“Life is about turning up. The more you get yourself out there, whether you wake up at 5:00 a.m. to pouring rain or not, the more you’re likely to experience the wonderful happenings that are going on all around you. Sometimes the most interesting visual phenomena occur when you least expect it. Other times, you think you’re getting something amazing and the photographs turn out to be boring and predictable. So I think that’s why, a long time ago, I consciously tried to let go of artist’s angst, and instead just hope for the best and enjoy it. I love the journey as much as the destination. If I wasn’t a photographer, I’d still be a traveler.” – Michael Kenna
The temperature in my car registered -3 degrees (F) this morning, much colder than my bed. My toes are still cold. Stay warm!

Could it possibly be the thermometer in the car is 40 degrees off? Beautiful shot.
Monte Stevens
Nope! The cold toes and fingers let me know. Brrrrr!

Beautiful shot, Monte. Too bad it has to be so cold to have snow. Snow would be much more palatable if it happened at 50 degrees! 🙂
Monte Stevens
Totally agree on the 50 degrees. Heck I’d even go down to 45. Again, I must confess the snow sure can provide some powerful images when we bear the elements. Stay warm!

Monte, I love that quote. So true for me.
This photo is beautiful! Wonderful light and great shadows. Brrrrrr!

I like it when others post quotes. They add to my day and have the power to change me in some way.

When it’s that cold I don’t know how you can even hold the camera! Crap!
Monte Stevens
Tripod! 🙂
