There’s been a dramatic change in the weather. On Friday, the majority of the schools in the county were closed due to freezing weather. It was -20° with wind chill. Today we broke a record for a high temperature 63°. It was definitely time to get out and take some photos. I chose to try the Brickstone Trail which I’ve enjoyed before. It turned out to be somewhat more treacherous than I imagined. The first part of the trail is shaded, and it was still snow-covered and quite icy. By the time I reached the bridge, the trail was clear, and the walking was much easier.
I have to admit after the first four photowalks were a lot more interesting, and it was a lot easier to find interesting subjects. All of them, of course, occured while we were traveling. Nonetheless, although not very colorful, here is a look at western New York during a January thaw.
I have one more image to share, but I’m saving it for a Winter Scavenger Hunt post which I hope to have up by the end of the week.
Well, I think they are great. Beautiful, clear light and peaceful colour palette. Really like the second one – but glad you didn’t do yourself an injury to get these!
These are stunning … you have such an eye for detail. I especially like the last one – so sharp.
Ditto what Alexa said – these photos are stunning. I especially love the close up of the curled leaves with the beautiful scenery in the background. You’ve caught the real beauty in a “not very colorful” subject.
A walk in which you saw the details of life.
Even grays and browns are beautiful when we notice details. Nice walk and glad you stayed upright! We’re experiencing lots of rain in SoCal but all is good as the lows are 45+
Lovely! What a treat! Glad you didn’t lose your footing!
Cheers~
