Broad in the Snow

People don’t know how to are just really careful about driving in the snow. Broad street in downtown Richmond was covered in snow the day after the storm with nice piles on the sidewalks. My sister walking with me stepped in a culvert hole that was covered but grabbed her in time.

Used a Nikon FM2 and 50mm f1.4 lens.

Blossom’s enjoyed at Maymont

I really enjoy spring. Winter is going into hiding, flowers and leaves are popping out. The weather turns nicer, slight chill in the morning with nice 70 degree weather around noon. It is great for working outside and also going about the city or anywhere outdoors to enjoy whats out there. The cherry trees at Maymont are really nice and they are view able just inside the gate. There was a nice old weeping cherry tree down by the pond in the Japanese garden but it was cut down this past summer for some reason and they replanted the same type of tree just significantly younger and shorter. Honestly the blossoms are nice in color if you have the nice deep pink flowers, these are white and they look great in monochrome as well.

First Time at Libby Hill Park

My sister had just gotten a new job and wanted to go celebrate at one of the new brewery’s in the city. After a few drinks she wanted to see the sun set and I gave her a ride up to Libby Hill Park. Apparently she had never been up there and it was a great day with plenty of people watching the sun set. She couldn’t stop taking pictures on her iPhone so I grabbed a quick photo of her photography skills.
