This is another one from my recent trip to Wisconsin. Someone had taken an old farm silo and added a little flair to it. I wasn’t able to get a clear shot of just the silo, but I think I like it better this way with the tree branches almost framing it.
This was taken on the way up Mt. Tallac in Tahoe on a day I spent backcountry skiing last season. The snow has been falling big time in California so my attention has been turning back to the mountains in Tahoe. This was a beautiful day, you can see some tracks in the center of the frame, and that is what kept us going on this long hike up!
You don’t know where Bruemmerville Wisconsin is? That’s strange, I thought it was widely known for its history as a feed and flour mill, and currently for the scenic dam and Hunting and Fishing Club. Oh well, now you can at least see how pretty it is in the winter.
The Forestville Dam in Wisconsin on a cool winter day. In case you couldn’t tell that this is a dam, there is a large sign to inform you. Probably much more helpful for when people are on the water in the summer. Even in the winter, I think the sign made the scene more interesting.
This is the view from the hike up Granite Chief at Squaw Valley. This isn’t the typical spot at the top where you would take in the view of what you will ski down, but I liked the way these trees were windblown on the backside. The whole image has a very cold and snowy feel to it. We have been getting some fantastic early snow here the last few days and I’ve been dreaming of skiing, so I had to post a snow pic!
The bare trees in the winter against the constant shape of the buildings in the city. The trees may have leaves, may have snow, or may be just empty branches but the city skyline will always stay the same.
The leaves are starting to fall off of the trees and soon they will all look like this. I liked the way the outer trees framed this shot, and some smaller trees in the middle let the sun just poke through.
