Winter Never Stops Around Here

Gasworks Park Snow HDR

Just because the weather said it might snow overnight (again) doesn’t mean I believed it.  They *always* say that.  Today they were actually right.  After discovering the buses weren’t running, we got in the car – it really wasn’t that bad.  The upside of dropping my wife at work is that I was already halfway to Gasworks Park.  I always wondered what it looked like under the snow, and now I know.  The lighting was low and soft, so I thought it might be more interesting as an HDR.  I love the old towers and pipes – if they would just take down the fence, this place would be a photographic dream.  Just don’t break through the topsoil to the superfund site below unless toxins really do it for you.

    Hi Tricia – I’m so glad you like my work. I do indeed sell prints but I’m too small to really have a standard setup. Email me: blog@aribrownest.com and let me know what you’re interested in and I’d be happy to work something out.
