Barring a last-minute miracle, I think the snow day Boise received earlier this month was winter’s final shot at making the past few months feel, well, wintry. Since this means spring is on its way, with opportunities for blossom closeups and floral portraits, I can’t be too bitter, but before we move on entirely, here’s one more celebration of snow and ice:
Just before the sun disappears below the horizon, everything is soaked in glorious, radiant warm light. Despite it being a tiny window, it’s still my favorite time of day to shoot. But combine raindrops from the day’s storms with that pre-sunset light and you get something truly magical.
I don’t know what it’s like elsewhere in the northern hemisphere, but here in Boise, we’re finally getting a taste of autumn weather, trading clear skies and 90 degrees for showers and a nip in the air. In honor of the shift, here’s a collection of some decidedly fall-ish photos! Enjoy, and keep an eye out for lots of new colorful leaf images as Idaho starts to admit that summer just might be over.
