A fresh layer of crystalline snow on the ground has a way of reflecting city lights, and revealing shadows which makes for challenging yet fun photography. This one was just after a big snowfall, while I was standing in Barrie Street by Queen’s University waiting for my ride. The trees’ shadows moved with each passing car, while the street lights cast a wonderful pinkish colour on the snow. The warm light in the distance on the right-hand side evokes home and shelter from the weather.
It’s gorgeous, Linda. The distance-yet-intensity of the warm-light-of-home strikes me as particularly poignant. And I love the broad field of untrammeled white in the foreground.
Tom, thanks! I also loved your piece on ant farms and ant battles on lastwordonnothing.com!
