A Walk Outside

Jump to Comments

Today turned out to be a beautiful, albeit freezing, day. One of those deceptively cold days that looks mild and pleasant from inside, but the thermostat outside still reads 24°, 18° with the windchill.

I just bought a polarizing filter for my Nikkor zoom lens a few days ago, so I decided to go for a walk when I got home this afternoon. Today’s light looked just right to test it out, with the shadows cast from a retreating sun painting the roads and houses in our neighborhood.

The suburbs aren’t exactly overflowing with photographic inspiration, but, viewed from the right angle, anything can look interesting. Some of the few shots I took tonight are in a slideshow below.
