SnowDay part 2

Can you believe it. The snow just kept coming. We had about 5 inches of snow here. There were power outages and two trees fell in my yard. From only 5 Inches of Snow. I’ve taken to calling these days the

Snowpocalypse

That’s basically what everyone here is treating it as, the end of the world. But it’s just a few inches of snow and what better do do with a few inches of snow than have some fun.

Flowers in the Snow

We had snow today in North Carolina, not the slushy ice NC usually gets when we have ‘Winter’ storms but real-life fluffy snow. This is a rare occurrence for us here, usually this time of year we are planting in our garden and have flowers already blooming. SO I grabbed some flowers.

Family

It’s not often that I take photos of people. I’m more of a nature, outdoors, strange objects photographer. It’s not that I don’t like taking pictures of people, I just prefer taking candid shots rather than poses and most people are Camera-phobic so they don’t really like me doing that. But I recently went to our family ‘reunion’ (it’s so large we’ll never get the whole family) and as the photographer in the family I am expected of course to take pictures. So I did what I usually do, took some candid shots. Quick, “Hey Look!” shots without giving them time to stop and pose. Obviously there are some that are posed but sometimes you just have to and I have some nieces and nephews who pose as soon as they see the camera. I did do some photo-editing with these as well, again something I rarely do, but I felt like experimenting. I’m not putting as many pictures as usual. I find that less is often more. Majority of these pictures are of my nieces/nephews.
