These are Pictures I have taken in the winter here where I live and worked. The St. Louis Galleria Mall is featured as well as the bridge I go over every day on my way home.
This is the past winter at the Galleria. You drive around a place all night, you begin to notice things. When the Ice Storm happened, I noticed the way the light went through the trees and I just had to take some pictures. Winter has a way of being beautiful sometimes. In civilization, we have the luxury of seeing the beauty in winter. In the past, winter was hardship, privation. You had to struggle to get through the season. So I like living in civilization. I can see the beauty in the desolation that winter brings.
Winter has a way of putting a blanket on the land. The best thing about winter is to find yourself at the first snow and be the first to put footprints in the snow. You feel like you have set foot on the moon or something.
Watching the sun rise in the morning gives you an energy to face the day.
