“What good is the warmth of summer, without the cold of winter to give it sweetness”.  John Steinbeck

I took a winter hike into the Minnesota River Valley with my camera recently.  I challenged myself to create a set of photographs that portrayed the silence of the snow fall, the deepness of the woods, and the emptiness of the area when all of the animals are in hiding during a snow fall.
