    1. Howdy, do we always see the mystery in the photograph before we take the shot or does the camera take over?

  11. I don't know if it's true B&W or the quality of light in the winter with a whitish sky, but this is a walk that I would like to take to experience the winter stillness. (That's soon to come to an end for us - I am starting to hear bird sounds again).

    1. Agreed. Winter light or winter stillness fills this image. I see buds on the magnolia tree, they are just barely peeking out.
