Snowy Milkweed – Sony NEX 5R, MC Rokkor 50mm [f2.8, 1/100s, ISO 3200]

The light as the sun came up this morning was amazing – cold and blue. I headed out into the yard to get some pictures before it changed.

It’s a perfect day to curl up with tea and a good book — I wish I had taken out Breadcrumbs when I was at the library on Monday.
