Winter Wonderland

Winter hit Chicago with its first slap in the face recently . . . not the fist it might use on us later, but a brisk slap . . . and it sent me into the files for some of my favorite Winter Wonderland shots. I call them Winterscapes.
The nature of the winterscape, featuring snow, generates lots of monochromatic shots or at least shots of the limited palette. Grayscale often works well. But the enterprising photographer will also find lots of color to feature in the work.
More winterscapes in the next post.
