Sunday’s Snapshots – Springtime In New England

April 6, 2014

Yesterday, I went on a late afternoon errand downtown. About 1/4 mile from my house, I have the option to take the more travelled route to my town’s tiny downtown, or to take the scenic route, which takes me on the winding, beautiful country road that has been my all-time favorite street for my whole life. I opted for the quiet winding route today, coming and going.

I didn’t have my camera with me, but I couldn’t help stopping to take some photos with my phone. I use Instagram, but I’ve never posted five consecutive photos within 45 minutes before, as I did yesterday. I just couldn’t stop sharing the natural New England beauty that I came upon.

So, for Sunday’s Snapshot, I’m sharing the photos here, and adding a few more as well. My htc one phone is great for Instagram. I hope the shots translate as well in this post.

      Thanks, Stacy! The sky and sun yesterday were the key to the photos. There was a moody cloud cover with occasional breaks that let the sun shine through. It was dramatic – brooding beauty! The fence shadow was fleeting…

        “Brooding beauty” – I like that way that sounds and the image it portrays. xo

        Thanks, Stacy! I’m a writer as well as a photographer so I find a good turn of words really satisfying!
        I remember thinking that “brooding beauty” had a great sound to it when I wrote it.
        Glad you noticed and appreciated and commented!
