Enduring the Snow

Quercus Grove Road
January 20, 2011
It's difficult taking a good photograph while it's snowing. Not as difficult as, say, teaching second grade, but still, not easy. Falling snow rarely looks like snow in a photo. It looks like something else. Streaky. Cloudy. So usually for landscape pictures I wait 'til the snow is over. But driving around this morning with Sally,  I decided to stop when she saw this steer in the snow, basically enduring it. I was sure he would move away when I approached and asked him if he minded being photographed, but he didn't. He endured it, along with the falling snow. Shutter: 1/40; Aperture: f/5; ISO: 100; Focal length: 28 mm
