DRAWING WITH LIGHT

It was seven in the morning but still DARK thanks to that lazy sun still vacationing down south.  A big snow storm went through last night and flakes were still falling when I took a walk to the park.  The city workers had already cleared the path.

Neighbor guys who would normally be trying to sleep in were up early clearing snow using their four-wheelers with plow attached. They were zooming all over the place using the snow-plow excuse to play in the fresh powder.  They have so much fun at their task that they even move snow that doesn't need to be moved.

Taking photos at that time of day is a challenge.  There is the choice of using a flash and a wide open lens like my first picture.  Or set the shutter for s-l-ow and try to hold still for a couple of seconds.

Of course with no tripod the results get a little smeary.  

What the heck, take advantage of the situation.

I'll call this one.  

"Ice patch!-- AAAAAAAAAH!--Crash"

This one is

"AAAAAAAAA!--Loop-de-loop--Crash"

This one is, 

"Dodging Traffic That is Skidding on Ice"

Enough of that.  

Better walk back home before the students wake up and try to drive in this stuff.
