Hello!
I was just looking back through my post and realised that I forgot to add my favourite photo of the set in the previous set. So instead of editing it in I thought I will just do a small post on it - separately from the others. Like I said it is my favourite one from the set; it is extremely simple and yet extremely beautiful. The balance is just right horizontally as you get a sense of space, which essentially defines the region the photo (Northern Austria) was taken in - because it is extremely rural. Again I think it works in black and white, that way you can see the cloud merge with the snow on the left side of the photo.
As always feedback very much appreciated!
p.s. As you may notice with the other photos, it may appear blury, I can assure you it is not, it's just the blog settup doing that. If you click the picture you may see it better/clearer...
Here is the photo:
Enjoy!

Minimalism and Snow
Hello! I hope everyone has had a nice Easter weekend.
Where I was (Northern Austria) we had snow a plenty, which meant that I could do plenty of walks with my camera. I have already mentioned the name Olivier Du Tré (http://www.olivierdutre.com) in a previous post, but I will mention him again. I really, really like minimalist design, whether that's architecture, sculpture, photography or even food, so I came across Olivier's website and struck an instant awe to his work. So I therefore thought I might give it a go!
What works really well with minimalistic photography is snow and clouds - they are the perfect backdrops for any photo. So For the next couple of photos I went out looking for the perfect photo opportunities. On Easter Sunday we had had about 10/15 cms snow fall over night, which meant that the only footprints one could see were those of hares, deer etc. So there I am bulldozing my way through the snow looking out for the perfect photoshots.
So what do you think?
And finally (not really minimalist but still worth a post):
Enjoy!!
