Yesterday I took my new Yashica zoom for a walk in the sourroundings. It was afternoon (=sundown) and cold, snowing… ruff light to photograph in. But I managed to get some nice shots, specially one I really like.
It’s something special walking through a cold, silent, white landscape. It can be very calming. Together with the trees I can feel it’s a spiritual experience. There not much colour information for the mind to process, shapes become patterns or hidden in snow. Other shapes, like special branches, get accentuated.

Excellent shots! *applause*
Thanks :)
Hello Mattias. Beautiful photos. Not only these. Nice blog. I wanted to go to sleep early today. And yet already 3 hours reading and looking through these pages :-)
After my dad left me a few Russian M42 lenses. Helios 44-2, Jupiter 21M, Jupiter 37A. And Minolta MD 50/1.7. Trying is the Samsung NX camera. Just getting started. It’s a little … return to youth :-) But I am beginning to understand all those who love manual lenses :-)
Have a nice day, and ….
… good light
