Winter Ball

First Snow
Last night was our first snowfall of the year. Around 2 or 3 in the morning I went outside and the western side of sky had this amazing soft orange tint to it. I rarely ever take, let alone enjoy looking at landscape photos, but the tranquility of the fresh snow and that amazing orange sky gave me the urge to try something different. I think it was first time I used a tripod in years!

Partially frozen swimming pool. The sky was actually a reddish-orange color, but I changed the white balance on this image to make it look more like how I felt - cold.
