Hi Marcelo,

Good to hear from you again.

Yes, the snow is beautiful. It does not snow at the altitude where I live, but it does in the mountains some hours away.

Your English is fine, better than some of my students! ;>}

Cheers.

Hi Ken,

Beautiful, snow does not fall here in Brazil and these photographs make me believe that it is falling outside the door.

PS: The video transitions emulating the snow is a nice choice.

Sorry if my english is not so clear.

Merry Christmas.

Glad you like the post, Cindy.
You conveyed the feeling of the moment, and, in some ways, that’s what photography is so good for… when it’s done well.

Thank you, Ken, for sharing my video, and thank you, Lee, for your lovely and encouraging comments. The quiet of the snow, the cold biting air, and being surrounded by the breathtaking and familiar scenery (that I had not previously experienced in winter) gave me a sense of exuberance and power that was quite extraordinary. When I looked at the pictures taken from my camera, I knew instantly and exactly how I wanted to portray them. I rarely feel so certain. Luckily I had already found Kevin MacLeod's haunting "Frost Waltz" which worked perfectly to create the peaceful and surreal mood. For anyone looking for royalty free music, visit Kevin's site
