Where’s the Colour?!

January 15, 2014 by Barb 6 Comments

Every morning on my walk I notice that the landscape never looks the same, even though we take almost the same route. I’m quite fascinated by the scenes where the colour of the sky and the land are almost identical.

Yesterday was so cloudy it seemed like we were walking in some kind of bubble, surrounded by varying shades of grey and black. It was quite early and I took this with my phone using a black filter to emphasize what I saw – because what I saw wasn’t much different than this. There may have been a bit more brown, but not much. We can take liberties because we are photographers, right?curvy-snowscape

Only one day earlier, this was my view (no filters whatsoever). Simply amazing.

I’m afraid I won’t be taking  a walk this morning. Our temperatures rose so much overnight that it was raining, and now we have 80-100 km/hour winds. Yikes! I’m cowering in the house hoping no trees come down.

Now it’s time for me to get to work! Have a wonderful Wednesday everyone!

    Lovely winter scenes. It is the lack of color that I miss most in winter. Although I don’t like snow, I do have to say, it’s a lot prettier than the mostly browns we see in winter. At least the grass in greener this winter thanks to adequate autumn rains. And it always seems to be windy. Sometimes I feel like I live in the prairie, which I don’t.

    My willows will not need to be pruned this spring thanks to the wind. My yard is a mess .. and yes the winds were awful.
    Its the same here. a Skating rink in my yard and all over the back roads too.
