Late Winter- Early Spring Photography

As shades of winter pass, and we are eagerly waiting for spring to begin in earnest, one must sometimes search a little harder when making images.

The first is a good example of that. while hiking in a park in my hometown of Trenton, I saw this leaf frozen in the ice in a ditch! it is important to capture a scene like this when one comes across it, as it was a moment in time. it surely would have been gone, or very different the next day.

The next image is of maple sugar buckets, which will be making an appearance in Nova Scotia shortly.

A Ruffed Grouse drumming on a log is another sign of spring if you can get close enough to one!

Nesting usually begins in late April, though "drumming" begins earlier than that.

After a fresh snowfall is always a great time to head outdoors as great shots await. all that is needed is a little imagination, and tramping around.

gotta run, it is beginning to snow!

cheers,

Gary.
