L
ucky for me, the day broke with sunshine,
brisk cold, and a fresh covering of light snow
– great conditions for winter picture taking. At
sunrise, bundled in thick clothes, I started wandering
the farmyard and fields eyeing objects for photo
worthiness. When the climbing sun became too
bright for photography, I sought refuge in the warm
house with a good book.
