the way I see the world
Dan is on his way to the Eastern Sierra as I type. Alas, I have students to teach, and simply couldn’t justify taking more time off this year. I will, however, dream of next year and look at last year’s photos.

I’ll continue with this Looking Back series, since I currently am unable to look forward to an aspen trip this year. (But next year I am determined to go on one.)

Color. It’s a toughie sometimes. What the camera sees (frequently tends to be bluer than what I see: for instance, snow isn’t white most of the time, it’s blue! But we see it as white.) what we see (usually more yellow and often a bit brighter as well — perhaps because my eyes adjust to the shade?), and then remembering and processing a photo to what I believe I saw … it’s a challenge. But I think this is what I saw …?!
