My Amateur Art & Photo Blog

The second day of the young year and a walk through the Boston Common was my deliberate intention today to find the Ice Sculptures left over from New Year's Eve with the intention of completing the '2015' in number photo assignment from my Flickr group. 2015 on ice - 002 of 100. I was lucky enough to capture this shot right before they demolished all of the sculptures, Copley Square had already been destroyed. I've added some background blur in post to try to hide the distracting tree branches that I couldn't blur out with my point&shoots limited options on the day.

Winter Freeze Christmas in Maine is even colder than Massachusetts apparently! That probably won't come as much of a shock to most of you, and as evidenced by the frost on this tree it certainly was true this holiday season. Taken with the  Canon PowerShot SX230HS  handheld, flash did not fire, tone adjusted in post processing.
