The spring is here!

Post by _sergey_ »

And we have -15 (celsius) and snow-storm :)

Nevertheless, I'm posting an image of what is considered a first sign of spring in central part of Russia - pussy-willow (hope my dictionary is right).

Image

Canon 50e, 28-80, 32 mm of extension tubes. F/16, expoisure time not recorder.

The interesting note is that those things can be seen in about the same condition during the whole winter. I think I should check next autumn, when they really begin "blooming"...

WBR,
Sergey.

Very nice Sergey :D The colors are very nice and the blue background conveys the -15 Celsius for sure :shock:

Heh :). I actually shoot it inside house and background was dark-blue book. It just got more lighting than the main subject. It turns out to be very good background for this short, wery realistic indeed.
