"Winter Wonderland"
©David A. Ziser
Here is another image I pulled from the early days of the blog before I was supplying all the details of the shot. This image was made in Sudbury, Ontario - the nickel capital of the world they say. It was pretty darn cold and snow covered everything during my visit. But, as you can see the snow made the shot. The bride was not standing in snow, but in a cleared area of the parking lot above me. I was positioned on the lower church parking lot also not in the snow. My first choice was to grab a wide angle lens for the shot but quickly changed my mind when the bride disappeared in the composition. I switched to a medium telephoto lens and could see the bride again. The lighting is supplied by the setting evening sun to my right. This is still one of my favorite images even though it was made back in the film days. Camera specs; Hasselblad 500CM fitted with 150mm Sonar lens, F22 @ 1/250 second, Kodak Vericolor film - ISO 400. Enjoy! -David
My Gosh! This shot is AWESOME! My wife knows all about you but I never say "hey, honey; look at this image that Ziser posted." I'm calling to tell her to hurry home! Brian F.
ReplyDeleteLovin this one David. Nice work. It really looks like she's standing in the snow too. Great use of the surroundings.
ReplyDeleteI gasped "oh my gosh" when I opened the blog to find this gem of an image. What a perfect day to share it. It doesn't matter when you took it, this is stunning!
ReplyDeleteFantastic shot! I could imagine if this was taken with a DSLR, all the "blinkies" would light up! Kuang Eu, Malaysia.
