Shadows on the Snow

We definitely had a lot more snow last February than we have had so far this year. This was taken in early February 2009, and was in a series I’d forgotten about because it was stored on a different computer. The first one is the original, straight out of the camera. This morning I had the urge to make it black and white, and I almost think I like that version better. What do you think?

I’m multi-tasking on the meme front again today, and playing in Scenic Sunday, Shadow Shot Sunday, and Straight Out of the Camera Sunday. Please do go visit the other participants as well … they’re much better photographers than I am! :)

Have a wonderful day!
Oh yeah, Happy Valentine’s Day too!

    Both look great but I think i like the original too…that blue sky adds a lot with the contrast of the snow and dark trees. It’s so pretty, great photo! Really nice shadows, too.

    Hi!
    Great shot! Love all those shadows. I like both pictures, the blue of the sky and the B & W. Have a great day!

    It is interesting seeing the tow shots here side by side. They are both beautiful, but each offer different beauty.

    both photos are great. Sometimes the B & W looks very effedctive when you do shadows.

    Happy valentine’s day

    Beautiful shots of the bare trees. I love snapshots of bare trees. I posted some recently myself though there is no snow here.
