Week 8

On Wednesday, there was yet ANOTHER snowstorm, just before Spring began (and people say global warming is a myth...). The snowstorm lasted for quite sometime and left around another foot of snow around my house. I still find this hard to believe with the recent warm weather, but the rather largesnow flakes made me except the what I was seeing. During the storm, I could have used both my digital and film cameras to capture streaking effects of the snow. I would have preferred to have done this shoot at night with a flash and/or a flashlight, because I would have been able to pick up the white snow trails in the dark background. In order to create this streak effect, I would have had to use low aperature settings of the cameras to capture the movement and light of the snow. If I were to use low aperature setting, I would have needed a tripod or any flat, steady surface so the camera would not shift while it took the images.
