    Empty Swings

    Empty Swings

    The day this was taken it was cold and snowy. The temperatures had stayed below freezing for almost a week and we had not seen much of the sun during those wintery days. However, I did brave the cold to spend some time at Blendon Woods for some shooting. I read where it’s good to shoot every day. I feel I do a pretty good job of this, probably shooting 350 days a year.

    This swing looks a little lonely with all the cold and snow. The silence is so amazing during a winter snowfall. But, when warmer weather comes and the children rush to grab a swing the silence will be broken. Laughter will fill the air.

    It can be rewarding to get outside the day of or the day after a snowfall, you never know what you might find. The day before this image was taken we had a nice snowfall and as sometimes happens today has turned out to be bright, sunny and warm, a great time to be outside. I drove to a park located near my condo and started to walk around. Near the kids playground, which was empty, there is a maze for the children, made of treated posts. The snow on the flat top is melting and creating a wonderful pattern just waiting for some guy with a camera to take a shot. That was me. It’s good to get out after a snowfall.
