.I will confess there was not much snow when we arrived and for a photographer this does not always make for great winter images.Thankfully, mother nature changed her mind and we woke up to a beautiful, winter wonderland I woke up early with excitement! I wanted to capture that moment just as the sun rose over the mountain and began to illuminate the world. Then, after breakfast, three of us headed down to a favorite childhood spot, in hopes of photographing more breathtaking views.
We stood at the edge of the lake. The clouds billowed above and the water was like glass. The majestic redwoods and sugar pines were lightly dusted with snow. I felt as if we had all become part of a scene in a creation of Maxfield Parrish. This was God's country, at this very moment and we all had cameras in hand!
It is rare to set foot in this small piece of the world, let alone experience it during the first snow of winter.To witness such beauty with my family made it even more special. I am very blessed.
