We had some very early snow this year on the West coast. It was 20 here in Seattle while at the same time Boston was sitting at a balmy 60 degrees. Unfair? Maybe. Scary? Yes. Many drivers here cannot mentally rationalize more than a nanometer of snow. This is strange, because it rains a billion inches a year here. Alas.
So, what did I do? Well, besides from being really productive while working at home (seriously), I went outside and took some shots before the sun set each day. They aren't great. But hey, whatever. My rules were:
- B&W
- No toning
- 35mm only (on an FF cam)
- Walk no more than 200 feet from apartment door
