Winter Wonderland


DSC_0002, originally uploaded by jessvess.

Sometimes its fun just to take pictures for pictures sake! I haven't done that in a while, admittedly. But yesterday, I got the chance. As many of you easterners know, we experienced a great snowfall this week. I haven't seen snow like this since my senior year in college! Anyway, we stayed up late with our next door neighbors, watching it accumulate. But was awoken early the next morning by my sisters puppy (who is staying with us for the week). I'm not a morning person, but when I went outside I was glad the pup woke me up at 6:30am! The winter wonderland was well worth it. So, the rest of the day was spent taking pictures of the beautiful view and some fun too. Enjoy!

oh just wondering, do you shoot all of your photos in RAW format? The clarity in these photos are awesome! I'm thinking I might have to purchase more expensive lenses soon for better quality photos~:( I hate having to touch my photos up as much as I do. I suck at picking out lenses as well... seems with photography I am always needing new gadgets, one more expensive than the others...hmmppff.

thanks val!

to answer your question, no - i don't shoot in raw. i just shoot in the largest resolution i can in jpg. but i have invested a lot in the lenses i have. i hate editing too. my goal is just to take the best pics i can, so i don't have to do a lot of editing later. i'm getting there!

do you shoot nikon? i can give you some advice on lenses, if so.
