Last year, I did skip the winter season when it came to my personal project on photo impressionism. I didn\u2019t think I could get any interesting images. I should have known better.<\/p>\n

I revisited this scene, which I had discovered in the fall. The muted early tones evoke rather different feelings than the bright fall colours<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

It is generally a bad idea to dismiss a photographic idea without giving it a try, I have learned. Sure, sometimes my initial gut feeling that I won\u2019t get interesting pictures is confirmed. But I found that if I really try to explore the subject, I will at worst come up with some better ideas for next time, and at best get some more photographs to add to my body of work. It\u2019s always worth a try.<\/p>\n

I found there was a lot of dead wood lying on the ground during this winter, and these horizontal lines interfered with the vertical tree lines when taking the multiple exposures. So I had to find a way to frame my photographs without the wood on the ground. This is one of the few pictures where I managed to do that.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

So I decided this time around to go back to Blackford Hill and see if there weren\u2019t any interesting images to capture during the winter season. I was pleasantly surprised. This post shows my favourite multiple exposure photographs of the winter forest in Blackford Hill.<\/p>\n

This is a picture I would never have taken even a year ago, and was a very pleasant surprise.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Sure, I prefer the fall (my favourite season for this kind of project) or the spring, but the muted earthly tones found during the winter season have an appeal of their own. What do\u00a0you think?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
