Mill Pond Church Sunset ~ December 4 [30]

New London, Minnesota

The snow reflecting blue sky appears blue. While this can be corrected, for one thing the white balance can be adjusted in-camera, I decided I liked the color contrast between the blue and the warm tones from the sunset--so I left it as is.
