Cherry Blossoms Frame the Tidal Basin

Cherry Blossoms Frame the Tidal Basin

To be interested in the changing seasons is a happier state of mind than to be hopelessly in love with spring. ~George Santayana

On Saturday, April 3, 2010, I had the really good fortune to be in the Washington, DC area while the cherry blossoms were at peak. I arose at 5:00 a.m., and my husband drove me to the area. It was "packed" with onlookers and photographers, so he drove around the ellipse while I made as many pictures as I could. Everyone was really wonderful. They looked, took pictures, and quickly moved out of the way for those of us waiting to look, and photograph. You could not help but enjoy the beauty!

Winter at Great Falls, VA

Winter at Great Falls, VA

This past weekend, March 6-7, 2010, we had our first opportunity to travel to the Washington, DC area. While there, we went to Great Falls on the Potomac River. Winter can be a challenge to create images, but we were pleasantly surprised by what we saw at Great Falls. The snow and ice had cleaned the bolders and brought out the colors much more vividly. There was a rainbow-like effect on the water, which was higher than we have ever seen it.

Rime Ice Atop Mt. Rogers

Rime Ice Atop Mt. Rogers

On February 19, 2010, we had one of the most beautiful days that we have had this season, so we decided to drive to Grayson County, VA to see how it looked there after the many snow and ice storms. We were greeted by some of the most beautiful winter scenery we have ever seen. Rime ice had formed in the Grayson Highlands area, and it had snowed recently, adding to the drama. This image was made along with others on the "Recent photos" page. They are all High Dynamic Range images.

The Winter of 2009-2010

This winter we have experienced very harsh conditions: five major storms, very cold temperatures, and snow on the ground except for two days since December 18. We are currently under a High Wind Advisory with single digit wind chills. I have been experimenting with shooting through the window, moving from window to window in our great room to capture the ice and snow covered view.
