Taking a Dip

January 30

BEST VIEWED IN ORIGINAL SIZE


A little stroke from the stream behind the house this morning. I love
watching the sun play in the winter trees on cold mornings. This was
especially sweet since Ellie slept well and was much better this morn.

One more day left of "color blindness". I always enjoy B&W photography
and frequently look at my color work with a desaturation layer to help
check for balance and contrast. I do appreciate all of the comaraderie
and creativity this month. I hope it has been as beneficial to each of
you as it has been to me.

Others participating in the B&W JANUARY CHALLENGE for the 30th are HERE.

The clarity of the reflection is really impressive. I like the sight of the small wavelets on the water. Minimalistic yet very compelling. Vote.
