EISSEN DORMERS

Uploaded: January 09, 2010

Description

-------
A terribly uneducated and just plain BAD pun! (But doesn't it bring back Pavorotti for a few bars?)
--------
This was my neighbor's snow-and-ice-clad house midday on the weekend before Christmas just after a heavy snowfall.
-----------
Raw, Manual Settings. F10, 1/250s, ISO:100, 153mm(equiv)
-----------

By the way, this is NOT a black and white conversion. the house is gray, the snow is white, the shadows are black, and so are the bare twig silhouettes!

---------

Exif: F Number: 10, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00, ExposureTime: 1/250 seconds, Flash: did not fire, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 100, White balance: Auto white balance, FocalLength: 109.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS 50D
