This evening we went to Martin’s Tavern for dinner. The temperature wasn’t too cold so we chose to sit outside. They had the heaters going and they still had their Christmas decorations up. We had a very nice time.
Polaroid Still Life
I’ve been testing the Polaroid SX-70 lately and decided to set up a still life to see how the camera would capture it. I put the camera on a try-pod and used a timer that I bought for it. I think it came out pretty good.
Polaroid Sunset
The sunset was beautiful this evening. I decided to capture it with the Polaroid SX-70. I think it looks retro and very cool.
Snow!
A snowstorm kind of snuck up on us. We couldn’t believe it was actually going to happen because yesterday it was 67°. But we woke up this morning and it was snowing like crazy. We decided to get out and walk around the neighborhood to see the snow. I shot a little video of our walk. In the end we got 7 inches of snow. Schools were closed today and they have already cancelled school tomorrow for lots of systems in the area. Check out the video:
Bird Count
It’s time to start the bird count again. Last year wasn’t the best. I only photographed 36 birds. That is up from the last two years but still not the best. So today was a warm cloudy day but I was able to get out and get the count started. I photographed 6 birds on this first day. Here are the ones I saw:
#6 Song Sparrow
#5 Mourning Dove
#4 American Robin
#3 Northern Mockingbird
#2 Northern Cardinal
#1 Yellow-bellied Sapsucker
