Small Town Snowy Night - My home town.
Comments by Jan Bjorklund on Mon, 03/10/08 09:39 Having lived in large cities (large by Canadian standards) nearly all my life the small town feel is something that I only get to experience when I travel and if I can scare up memories of my life when I was a young boy growing up in a small logging town. This picture captures a feel for me of that all day drive and finally looking for a place to bunk down for the night and I always searched out the small towns because there was a sense of tranquility... peacefulness... and security for me there and the next morning more than likely I could find a restaurant that would serve a real breakfast.

Comments by Linda Frey on Mon, 03/10/08 10:49 Glad you got out there while it was snowing! Nice to see the snow lit by the streetlight.
Comments by Ruth Rittichier on Mon, 03/10/08 11:24 Cool photo, that has an eerie feeling about it. I love the way the light is being diffused and the snow streaked as it comes down. The blanket of snow provides light for excellent definition of the buildings. Comments by John Long on Mon, 03/10/08 18:43 No footprints and just that one set of car tyre tracks. Glad you stayed out late to get this Julie - it represents a quiet place. Comments by G.B. SHETTLER on Mon, 03/10/08 18:51 Excellent, Julie !! They must have left the lights on for you. Comments by Rick Longworth on Mon, 03/10/08 20:16 Love the sparkler on top and the sparkles down low. Comments by Steve Owen on Mon, 03/10/08 22:47 You have beautifully captured the sight and feel of a snowy night. Well done! Comments by DebbiK on Mon, 03/10/08 23:07 Waht really grabs me here is the street lamp in the front and as Ruth said it has a sparkler effect. Very cool shot!

Dant on Wed, 03/12/08 03:43 Alan, :0).. you had me laughing out loud on the lucky seventh comment!! So I'm glad you liked my Frigid Fireworks and I thank you seven times! You're not the seventh son of a seventh son, are you? I guess that'd be asking too much...
Comments by Maria Salvador on Wed, 03/26/08 09:57 Ditto to Alan's comments (all of them!) Love the 'sparkler effect' too, and the composition, and the quietness, and all... |
