Pine Forest at Bus Station

Posted by Damon Schreiber (Toronto, Canada) on 27 February 2007 in Landscape & Rural and Portfolio.

This is the view where I wait for the bus every morning. Some days, it looks nicer than others. This is the same morning as the previous photos, just after the snow stopped falling.

Hi-res here.

Magical! But cold. Do you ever get the feeling I don't like cold?!

@Bronnie: Cold builds character. Thanks, Bronnie!

Daroru from Osaka, Japan

Great tone and contrast.

Martine Lapointe from Québec, Canada

I like this bus station! You have a beautiful point of view of trees!

@Martine Lapointe: Thanks, Martine! This scene reminded me of your photos of the Laurentide mountains. But if you saw the bus stop in person you would know that it's a little bit of nothing. I just found the part of the view.

Helen from Melbourne, Australia

Nice. I like the compositions and how the natural shapes of the trees are cut by the form of the fence.

@Helen: Thanks, Helen! It's an interesting frame, no?

Behrooz from Tehran, Iran

I officially call you the snow master. You do wonderful shots!

@Behrooz: Wow, thanks so much, Behrooz!

Winter is always here!

Angry Buddha from United States

Looks nice and cold.

@Angry Buddha: Thanks, Sean! I don't have the spectacular vistas at my disposal that you do, so I'm making do with a small patch of trees.

Stu from Kyoto, Japan

What a great scene. Looks frighteningly cold! I must be becoming a tired old man, would've loved to have woken up to this as a kid. Now I understand why my parents never got excited about snow!

@Stu: Are you kidding? I was so tempted to forget work and make it a play day. It was honestly not cold at all. Almost exactly 0° Celsius. Practically T-shirt weather in a Canadian winter.

Michael Zhang from New York City, United States

I like how the fence is intricately laced with snow.

@Michael Zhang: Thanks, Michael!

Sylvia from Milano, Italy

Behrooz "snow master" very nice idea-- have to agree, you make snow work for you, usually only the gods can do that. Symmetry, lovely, very peaceful.

@Sylvia: Many thanks, Sylvia. I wouldn't presume to usurp the gods' work (or even Martine's). They might get angry...

Duncan Galbraith from kyoto, Japan

A lovely little view, and even if it is a little bit of nothing, its a very nice nothing. Its nice to be able to isolate those little pieces in our images. nice job

@Duncan Galbraith: Many thanks, Duncan. Here's to nice nothings!
