Harsh Light

Again the light was super as the sun lowered. Looking straight into the light with the sun just out of shot, the hard part is controlling the bounced rays off the snow. I toyed with taking down the highlights, but the image didn't have the same feel without the intensity. Almost sepia toned, but it's not. I liked the shallow depth of field to bring out the ice crystals on the branch tips.

High of 15°F.

Extra: Moon Rising. Strange to see in the blue sky of day. I don't do many of the moon, but interesting to see the craters.
