Steel beams rust away on a single-lane bridge over a half-frozen Hinkson Creek near Old 63.
I’m not a huge fan of the distortion that typically comes from ultra-wide angle lenses, such as the Nikon 14-24mm f/2.8 used for this photo, but I do like the almost symmetrical framing. I stopped down the lens a bit to get more of the background in focus, which I think definitely adds to the harsh feel of the image.

It was supposed to stop snowing hours ago but apparently the clouds didn’t get the message. Coming out of Advanced Techniques today, there was a fresh coat of snow on sidewalks and some streets, with flakes still falling as the evening sun peeked through the clouds. I walked to the top of Hitt Street Garage to get a higher perspective and some color in the sky. I regretted that immediately, since it felt about 10 degrees colder and much windier 60 feet above ground. Since Chris is borrowing my D700, all I had to use was my old D2Hs and kit lens so I had to shoot pretty wide.
