Not Your Usual March Day in Bellingham

Woke up and saw sun peeking out behind the window blinds. Pulled them aside and what did I see? Snow! Whatthaheck! Of course I had to do abbreviated morning chores and quickly dress so I could do a walk about in my neighborhood and take pictures. Our house happens to be on an alley instead of a street. This is what you see looking up the alley from the bottom of our driveway. I love the funky quality of our neighborhood. There was a paper mill near us on Lake Whatcom and where we live used to have small homes for mill workers. Although out house is actually in a former apple orchard. Our house has no real street access which I also like. It's very peaceful here.

The photo is an HDR combination of seven photos I took looking up the alley. I used the Nik Software HDR Efex plug in and their Silver Efex to convert to black and white. Take a look at the large version.

I'll be posting more photos to my new photo blog later today. To see them look here.
