We had one of those ice storms today where it was cold enough for the rain to freeze on power lines and BBQ grills and decorative aluminum eagles but not cold enough to freeze on the streets. Icicles make good subjects for shallow-depth-of-field experimentation. Black and white just captures the moment so nicely.
Ice storms in general are hell on stay-at-home dads. Cold rain means staying inside, which means keeping Abby entertained is quite a bit harder. With the holidays over and everyone back at work and out-of-town guests back at home, our options for staying occupied narrowed considerably. We worked on our numbers and letters and she miraculously took a nap.
