morning frost


Here’s a little snapshot from this morning that I couldn’t help but share. The temp really dropped last night, and this morning there was a nice little coating of frost on my car. Doesn’t it look so much more interesting at the macro level? To do this, I had my camera on manual (of course), used a large aperture so that there would only be a small area in focus and got as close as possible to focus at the macro level with the lens I had on. If you have a camera with automatic settings, there probably is a macro setting on your camera (usually a flower) that will allow you to focus at a very close range and do something similar- the large aperture however creates the blur in the foreground and background. enjoy!

Steph - I love that photo! It’s cold here (you know, relatively speaking). It’s supposed to snow tonight….that could mean anything in NM. But boy is it windy and cold….brrrrrrrrrrr. I made French Onion soup for Mema and Moky – and me! If you like that, let me know. I have a killer recipe.
I’ll try that photo technique.
