A Short-Lived Snowfall

This winter has been pretty warm so far. Not that I'm complaining, really, as snowy weather isn't something I've been too keen on lately. However, on the night of Jan 19, 2012, the snow was absolutely gorgeous. It lightly dusted everything in a sparkly coat of awesomeness. I went outside and snapped a few long exposure shots, including the one below. The colours in the sky were beautiful, and even though the sun was down it was still pretty bright out. Not two days later, the temperature rose to the positives and all the snow has melted away. It sure doesn't look like the end of January out there. I'm just glad I was able to snap this shot before all the snow melted away! Enjoy, and keep warm out there...


Until next time,

First Post!

Hello everyone!
For a while now, I've been using sites like Flickr and Deviant Art to post most of my photography. However, I have wanted to start a blag of some sort as well. It was just something I never got around to doing, I guess I didn't have the motivation to start. Lately, I've been finding that my activity in photography has been pretty slow as well. I don't take photos as much as I used to, and that pretty much just sucks. I found myself in a familiar place, lacking motivation. I figured maybe I can use the two problems to fix each other. Having photos to share motivates me to start a blag, and having a blag to update will push me to take more photos. It seemed like a good idea.


So, after much deliberation, planning, and adjusting, I finally have started my own blag. I'll post new photos at least once a week, hopefully more! So stay tuned, and feel free to hassle me if I haven't posted in a while.


Until next time, 
A. Schaefer
