30 F cloudy with a few flakes.
It's been snowing the last three days, we haven't gotten that much snow altogether, but it's still been snowing for three days.
The "Money Shot" from today.

I've been here before, but never did this exact scene, I think I'm just naturally drawn to certain places, do you wonder why?
The tone was just perfect for the day, but I think that was just luck, and I ran with it.
There were two areas if interest, the water rushing over some rocks in the foreground and the opposite bank.
This is where I ended up.
Here is the scene. Everything's different with the snow, and the water was high and rushing. Today I just had to have a water scene.
Sight-size shot.
The ground was not frozen, and in general it was a pleasant day, but no day at the beach!
For me, a limited pallet Ultramarine blue, burnt sienna, cadmium lemon and cadmium yellow light, alizerine crimson and of course titanium white. I left off a 2nd blue, cuerealan as of late, and zinc white. Ok so it's not that different, but it's a nod in that direction.
I like all of your work it is so interesting to see what you are doing Matt, I also appreciate all the stages of the photos, I would love to be so disciplined. :)
