2013 Project 52, Week 50: Snow

Week 50: December 10-16

It's incredible to me that I've made it so far this year on this project and that I'm now staring at Week 5-0. I'm a little behind due to the holidays, but I have not missed the week.

The week saw bitterly cold days just before an inexplicable few days of summer weather. One Saturday saw very heavy snow, which we made us determined to get out to the Park. Snow in New York (well, speaking for Manhattan) is really only any fun if you play in it in Central Park. 

It was a very wet snow falling that day. I don't have any rain covers or anythingfor my gear, so I Macguyvered a plastic baggy with a rubber band over my D40 and lens and hoped for the best. As far as I can tell they both made it out just fine.

After looking through my photos I'm realizing that I've been kind of crazy about the trees this winter. I love the leafless look. Maybe it's the strong lines the arms and branches create. I'm not sure I really know what to do with them from a composition standpoint. But it really, reliably draws my attention.
