Macricostas Preserve, Washington, Connecticut.

An old friend who hasn't been on snowshoes in many years and I took a lap around this big field. Great fun to be out and he did very well.

Next time we'll go up the hill at the back of this image. My wife and I broke the trail up and over it a few days ago. The back-left of the hill is called "Waramaug Rock" and it looks out over Lake Waramaug which is about 3/4 mile to the left edge of this image.

This image is looking east, the previous one is looking back this way from the other side of the field.

Some abstract fun. A bit more texture on the beam than I would have liked...

Added to Explore at #410. Thanks all.

Picture taken in 1989 deep in the bush of Amboseli NP. Amazing.

I set out on Sunday afternoon with the aim of playing round with trying to make panoramas from multiple photos. I took along the trusty monopod and achieved a uniform exposure by recording the readings from the auto-exposure in auto mode and reproducing those settings in manual. Contrast and saturation both increased in photoshop along with the stitching...

Mattatuck Trail, Warren, Connecticut.

This ice is on a small stream feeding into the Shepaug River. The stream doesn't have a steep grade and this is part of what makes interesting ice formations (slow moving water).

I took too many images during the hour I spent here and many weren't in focus although with ice it's tough to sort that out. This collection is a cross section of the different types of crystallization I found that day.
