By far my favourite post of yours. I appreciated you sharing about the book, Tinker -- I'm definitely going to look it up. Life isn't just photography -- thank you.
Thanks for the helpful book & YouTube recommendation (ordered & following). Jurgenson sums it up nicely: “The Snow Day is exceptional and thus picture worthy. Each extra inch looks like progress and is thus photographable. Everyday surroundings that usually seem to have exhausted their photographic potential are breathed new productive life. Look how different things are right now. And snow photos look good. The white wash makes the image simpler and more striking by removing extra elements from the frame. The bright snow provides instant contrast, making any subject pop. The flurries in the wind provide movement and texture and depth. The snow itself falls and is blown into beautiful and unpredictable arrangements, wrapping around the contours of objects smooth and lifelike. Even when shot in colour, snow photos can appear almost black-and-white. Snow is its own photo filter. (Nathan Jurgenson).
