The weather in VA has been pretty gross. It’s been dark, gloomy and rainy. Not very fun, but it makes for amazing water droplet images.

In other news, I’m really excited for Thanksgiving. I plan on making an appetizer, 2 sides and 2 pecan pies 🙂 YUMM

Last week I went out with William to Meadowlark Botanical Gardens. We were hoping for some frosty conditions and got nothing. Seriously, not even a drop of dew.

After walking around, we saw this beautiful reflection of a colorful tree in one of the ponds of the park. Walking a little bit closer, we noticed the icy water and I think both of us took out our cameras at the same time. It looked so cool!

I left my house early in the morning and still really dark but cloudy. I got kinda worried that I wouldn’t see a good sunrise. So, driving to Great Falls it was still pretty dark until I got to the parking lot. I literally jumped a little in my seat because I finally saw color in the sky and got so excited. I ran out of the car and walked as fast as I could to my favorite spot in the park. I set up my tripod but had difficulty capturing the color in the sky. After playing with my white balance I finally got it. I had to change it a few times between shade and flash but I think it turned out so well.
