More White

The moon was waxing gibbous (just so you know) the morning I took this shoot. This is one of my favorite tree assemblages, a Chinese Sumac, I think, on the side of Peters Hill. What I wanted to capture was the snow, glowing in the moonlight.

I get such a kick out of the glow and the shadows cast by the full or almost-full moon (err, I mean waxing gibbous…). The shadows weren’t strong in this shot and actually I’ve not been able to capture them when I’ve come across them. So the luminosity of the snow will have to serve instead.

I’m working to find some joy in my days and the moon adding some brightness to my morning Arb walk is right up there. Being grateful is easier the more you do it.
