In My Back Pocket - Photography
'It is not what you look at that matters. It's what you see.' – Henry David Thoreau
Winter Constant
In a spring that needs to take hold more firmly, winter drags on, a guest overstaying its welcome. Winter continues as constant in and around Alberta and features in photos – farms dusted with snow, grain elevators and Harvestor Silos providing colour against the snow, the Peace River melting through ice … covered with snow. Each are presented here.
Listening to – Francesca Battistelli’s ‘This is the Stuff’ and JJ Heller’s ‘What Love Really Means.’
Quote to Inspire – “The photograph is completely abstracted from life, yet it looks like life. That is what has always excited me about photography.” – Richard Kalvar
Fantastic shots. I like the one of the former farm in particular. Great atmosphere
Hello, hello …
It is an interesting shot of a former farm, one that is likely shifted from or bought out by a larger farm operation.
In any case, the tentative nature of the home or homestead that was is what the image is about … and, winter that lingers on.
Take care …. 😉
That “Former Farm” photo is great!!
Hey there, LB:
The tone of ‘Former Farm’ is something interesting … the shot is made as a snow storm begins.
Take care ….
