My last post talked about how the snow in Yosemite had a variety of looks in various scenes, and I shared one of the looks with the marshmallow “puff” image. This time I’m showing you an icy blue look…at least that’s how it appeared to me. I’ve never seen such an amount of snow layered on the trees and ground so perfectly. It was truly a magical place!
You might’ve noticed that I’m working on processing photos differently just to see what I get. Studying the light and shadow of other images as well as paintings helps me a lot. The thing is translating what I see into an image. Not easy! I’m sure I’m on the baby end of things but I sure have fun learning.

Doing a cracking job too Laura. It’s not always easy to create an image as we see it in our minds eye. Always a joy to see what comes next😁

Thanks Eddie. It really isn’t easy. I’m still not satisfied with this but it’s on the right track in the recesses of my crazy mind lol.

Lauramacky – This is something that I’ve been trying to do for some of my future Posts in this New Year. With the Software that I have, I’m sure that I can do something a bit different. I do like your Image, cause it is different. Best wishes to you this New Year.

Well done Laura…although I usually do not get an image of snow when i think about you and your images. Beautiful as always. Best to you in 2016.

Thank you Robert. Well, no, I can see why since a flake falls here every 20 years. I have some more from the trip. I smile when I’m working on them because I remember how gorgeous it was. Warm wishes for a fantastic 2016 to you!!

But photoshop is a skill in itself 😊

Agreed. 🙂
January 4, 2016 at 10:56 am
White magic, for sure, dear Laura. Your winter pictures are breathtaking. This makes me want to head up to the hills where the snow its—but I’m lousy at driving in it. 🙂
Blessings ~ Wendy

I can’t imagine driving in it. Walking was enough. 🙂 Thank you so much Wendy!

Snow is so full of light. We haven’t had any!! Very beautiful and happy new year Laura!

Thank you! And wow…no snow yet? I guess it’s a California thing because it seems the whole united states is a bit bare on snow. Happy New Year to you too Hana!
