A Good Photography Day

Cardinals Don't Care
Originally uploaded by Mountain Hermit.
Got out during the snow today and got some good shots at the Big Trees Forest Preserve in Sandy Springs.

I love getting out to take pictures; it always makes me happy and reduces my stress level. Today was especially good in that regard: it's been a long, long time since I've walked in the woods with snow falling around me and blanketing the ground under my feet. The distinctive crunch of snow under boot brought back a flood of fond memories of winters in New Brunswick.

I walked the outer circuit of the trails at Big Trees and at the point furthest from the entrance (and thus Roswell Road) it was just barely quiet enough to hear it if you were still: the soft sound of snowfall. That, too, brought back many memories and I stood silent and enjoyed them for a good long while.

I like them a lot. I tried to post one to my LJ, but it didn't work for some reason. Might try again.

I agree, it's a cool place, made all the cooler for being where it is. My Hellenic group meets there for our monthly libations, cause we all like the pretty.

It was so beautiful yesterday. It is funny how nostalgic it made me. Massive ammounts of snow is what drove me *from* the MidWest, but when we get the pretty stuff like we did yesterday it makes me miss it a bit.

The photo is absolutely gorgeous.
