Typical winter day here...snow piled high all over the place...spring seems a long way off. This cotoneaster should be covered in lustrous green foliage with red berries that the birds feed on.

Entry #2 - take your pick..
Honest Abe is a) Welcoming you to Hartford, b) inviting you to sit down, c) very cold without a jacket
i know the angle of the sun sucks but i've been trying this shot since Nov and the winter sun just never seems to be in the right place. Had to use Photoshop to brighten up Abe a bit. Still, i like the 'stories'.

Entry #2: "Forever standing watch" I know the challenge is to let the photograph tell the story, but I'm going to spoil this one. I was in a museum when I saw this guard standing there. He looked older, possibly a volunteer, but he had a sense of control about him. I was nervous to take the shot, so I looked around with my camera and waited. I slowly rolled my D5200 with my 35mm lens towards his direction, got the frame I wanted and took the shot. The guard hadn't noticed, or didn't care. As I walked by the guard, I did a quick inspection of my subject because I was intrigued that he could be so professional with his volunteer work. That is when I saw it and slapped my hand to head. He was a prop set there by the museum. Fooled everyone around.
