North Carolina winter storm produced a few photo opportunities today. I am hopeful overnight will give up a few more.

Using a diorama I created last year and recently repainted. Flooded it with a Cync light in a red hue and splashed the exhausted trooper with a pinch of direct light from my Small Rig RM03.

A recent wind storm deposited some leaves in our front courtyard, so I collected a few for some B&W photography.

Another still life setup. I like the textures that pop in black and white with the dead plants.

Windy distortion”. Having a little fun with filters today. Winds today off the lake are hitting 30-35mph and moving trees. I love the movement in the upper trees.
