Default The road to somewhere

This is a photo I shot yesterday. It was around -20°C, but my batteries held. If you go to the larger version on Flickr, you can see the birds nesting in the trees. I converted the photo to black and white, because it was dull in colour.

I really like the way this photo "feels", I think the black and white really conveys the mood well.

Beautiful shot. -20 does not sound like fun. At all.

Thank you guys.

-20°C isn't all that... you just have to dress properly

I really like this shot as well. The B&W serves it well.

Thank you guys. It is one of my best shots this year... Hehe, but it was taken on January 5th, so I hope I'll do it again, or even better, later this year
