If you were to lay on the entry floor and look out my front door, this is how the snow would look at midnight.Believe it or not, this picture had a purpose. I am currently working on Unit 2 for my Professional Photography course at the New York Institute of Photography. One of my assignments for this unit is framing. This picture is a practice shot. And, I learned, not a good framing shot either. While the snow and the side pillars do frame my neighbor's house, the trees are in the way.
I also wanted to practice lighting. Taking a picture at night is different from taking a picture at night when the ground is covered in snow. Snow works as a reflector of light. So, the snow in front of me is too bright while the house across the street is shadowed.
I have to continuously remind myself that I learn from my failures. Rejoice in the successes, learn from the failures.
it looks like one of those kind of scenes you would see in a play on a stage as a backdrop.
