Pastures New Blanket
Photo By Tom Lussier

Title: Pastures New Blanket
State/Province/Region: Virginia
Country: United States
Nearest Area: Washington DC
Nearest Town: Waterford
Brief Directions: The historic town of Waterford is in western Loudoun County Virginia. From the county seat, Leesburg, travel west on Rt. 7, take a right on route 9 then a right on Clarkes Gap Road through the town of Waterford. Continue on Clarkes Gap two miles.
Best Season: Autumn
Description: A freshly fallen blanket of snow stuck to everything because of the calm wind. The front was just clearing as the sun broke through the clouds selectively lighting the pasture. This is three exposures combined in Photomatix using Details Enhancer. I set to exposure compensation to -.7 to darken the set and increase the contrast.
Gear: Nikon D300, Nikkor 18-200mm VR
