Vermont

January 9th, 2009

2009 is off to a fine start, but has been keeping me far too busy to be here writing posts. Sorry about that.

The trip to Vermont over the new years weekend was a good trip, but very cold. I usually try to do a little bit of landscape photography on these trips even if I don’t shoot with a model. But when the thermometer in the van is hovering in the neighborhood of 0F degrees I feel a strong incentive to not see anything that requires me to get out of the car to shoot it.

But every time I’m up there I tend to take this photo you see above. That farmstead is in the view out of my mother-in-law’s living room window. I shoot it through the window simply because that is the only camera location that gives me the composition I’m after. I’ve tried walking all over the yard and road in front of the house, and this is the best angle. But I can’t get the elevation outside the house. So I shoot through the window standing in the living room. It’s warmer there too this time of year. I love the composition and I love seeing how it looks different at different times of year and in different weather. They seem to have painted or sided the house since the last time I shot it, so the color scheme is now different in a way I enjoy.

Life away from the interweb is still real busy right now. My younger daughter is still home from college and my older daughter likes to come over in the afternoon with my new grandson. Life is good. But I’ll be back to posting more often soon.
