This church was on my list of things to shoot this winter. It's about 30km south of Winnipeg and sits between the north and south bound lanes of Pembina Highway/Rt.75. I had to shoot it from the side of the road as the parking area wasn't plowed. B&W conversion done in Silver Efex Pro 2.
i really like this David nice job
Thanks, Joseph! Nothing like standing on the side of a snow covered 4 lane highway taking pictures! :-)
Lovely image, David! So simple. I find it an interesting aspect of modern life that many such tranquil, soothing images are taken in conditions that are anything but. That we find peace in such hubbub.
Thanks, Chris! Nothing like the open prairies of Manitoba to test one's tranquility. :-)
I love how the snow has pretty much burnt everything else out of this pic. Framed this great!
Thanks for the comments! However, the 'white out' condition was created by using the Graduated Filter in Light Room. If the conditions were that bad, I would have barely been able to see the church considering that I was on the other side of the highway shooting it. I got the idea for this from an article in Outdoor Photographer Magazine.
