[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
It is officially spring now so winter has arrived! Yesterday we had heavy snow showers for most of the day. It wasn't easy to take some shots as the snow was coming in all directions and the light wasn't great but I really enjoyed trying!

This is a garden near my home. It is designed by a famous garden designer, James Pullen. He designed some of the gardens at buckingham palace. This garden was lost from official records for years and it a bit run down

Très joli contraste de l'hiver avec la neige et de l'eau dont la couleur fait plutôt penser à la fin de l'été. Bravo!

Hi Karan,

Nice contrasts, with the foreground colour and the frost almost monochromatic. I went down to one of my local beaches yesterday morning about 6.30 and by 8am my face and hands had frozen solid, Spring indeed!

Hi Karan
I can imagine how this will look when the fountain starts working. Beautiful capture and your version of mono and color does it justice.
Nice work
Dot

Hello Karan,
Hehehehe, isn't fresh snow lovely!
Well, maybe not in April... I experienced the same last year with 50 cm during Easter!
An interesting composition, where half the frame appears black and white, the other half in colour!

Hello Karan
What a lovely spring photograph! It shows us that only Mother Nature will decide when we will have spring.. I love how you captured the falling snow on the water! I do love the greens!

Hi Karan,

What a nice shot, is peaceful and beautiful... I like the reflection here, what is those lines on the water at the bottom part of the shot? are they some plants under the water? or just some effect?


Have a wonderful weekend,

Cheers,
Sweety

Hi Karan..this is a beautiful shot...great composition with nice contrast between the white and the color of the water.

Hello Karan,
A captivating composition. The colours may seem strange, but theu work very well here. Excellent details and sharpness. You should try to take a similar picture when it's all green and sunny ;) Well done, congrats!
