Suzanne, I like it a lot. For the past couple of weeks we have been getting snow in East Tennessee, and I have yet been able to capture a beautiful image like this one.
Suzanne German replied
wow izzybeth – it was such random shot – happened to rememebr to pop my camera in my bag before leaving home this morning and on the way home – while waiting at lights – on my right – there it was – voila – had to take a snap! i must admit i love the way the golden brown earth turned up in sharp contrast to the deepening blue evening sky…sprinkled with falling snowflakes…..
hope you have a lovely weekend in Tennessee

excellent image
Suzanne German replied
hi tommy thanks….glad you like it. i had to crop the car mirror out of it, reducing its original size – cause it would have spoilt the rest of the image…but i am still very happy with the way it turned out. it seemed quite a magical scene to me at the time.
thanks again for your interest and your comment.

I love the atmosphere of this shot. It is indeed magical. The flakes could be faeries flitting about or fireflies or, as others have stated, stars. Lovely.
