I took these on Friday for STIR magazine's spring issue, so the goal was to make the fact that it's winter and the ponds are entirely frozen as inconspicuous as it could possibly be. I didn't even have any blue sky on Friday to help me out so I could focus on that and try to avoid the ponds, so the writer of the article and I decided that the best way to go about this was to use sepia tone. That way they maybe look like they're historical photographs, and it's not as silly that it's clearly winter. It was actually fun to be able to take shots from the middle of the ponds since they were so frozen. I was a little nervous the ice would break and I'd fall in and destroy my camera (not to mention most likely get hypothermia!), but luckily I didn't and the shots came out pretty well. I guess if I want to recreate them after the ice melts I'll have to find a canoe somewhere!

Damn hypothermia! Without which, so much more fun could be had...
very pretty!! and really, what's making an issue of STIR without risking your life a couple times? ;)
love you!
Yeah, well, those waters are only about 3-feet deep in the deepest part. But who cares when a good story's to be told....
