Winter Road: Laudholm Farm
Ah the delights of a Maine winter (when we have one in Southern Maine, which is about 1 in 3 years in my experience). Of course, by winter I mean feet of snow and cold and wind that makes you eyes water and your tears freeze on your face! Foot stamping, glove pounding weather. No half measures here. No freezing rain and slush. No wimpy high 30s days. I mean a real winter. Slightly life-threatening and awesomely beautiful!
Finally, we have winter in Southern Maine.
This is the long drive in to Laudholm Farms and the Wells National Estuarine Research Center in Wells Maine, just down the road from me. It is a great place to cross-country ski, and everyone else there this morning was on skis or snowshoes. Me…I was just taking pictures.
Canon SX50HS in HDR mode. 24mm equivalent field of view. Recorded exif data: f8 @ 1/500th @ ISO 80. Processed in Lightroom for intensity, clarity, and sharpness. Cropped to eliminate the burned out image of the sun at the top.
Now that looks more like the Maine winters that I remember. Up around Limestone and Caribou. Nice image. I just received my SX50 HS. Now to ger used to the menus. So far I really like it.
Nice clear image, Steve. Thank you.
