Picture a Day #31, January 30th, 2013

OK with only moments to spare, I upload picture a day #31. I realize it would have been easy to simply run out into the snow storm and snap some photos of snow on trees but that seems a bit obvious and my photogrpahy has never been about obvious. Here is an image originally taken in the summer. The water drops that are falling are real. This came from a "rain machine" that I built and this was the first shoot using it. I spent some time producing a new edited image from that shoot while anticipating an upcoming rain machine shoot (did I mention that I do offer rain machine shoots as a premium add on to standard model portfolio packages?) At any rate, the editng is subtle at first glance. The entire water reservoir present in the original image has been replaced by a pond of water.

Enjoy!
