Signpost in the creek. Discovered on a too dark night. Remembered on a snowy day.

It’s snowing again today, 18 inches by noon if you believe the forecaster. Which means it’s time to bust out the snowy day shot list. I’ve started to keep a list in my head of photos that I want to go back to when the light, climate etc are right. One is the snow covered barbeque. There’s something incredibly forlorn about a weber grill and lawn chair covered in snow, a tableau of working-class/grad-student poverty and distraction. I’ll get it today. Last snowday it was the kicked over paralleogram of a decaying garage on Springfield. Getting it meant trudging around on my lunch break in 5 degree weather and a foot of new fallen snow, but that one is in the can.

If I’m lucky I’ll even get a shot of the view out the tower windows at work. Last snowday I didn’t have a wideangle, so I missed the shot. Today I’ll carry the 35.
