Dam Sunday
Monochrome Monday
Monochrome Winter
Delta Lake Dam
I have been determined to find the sun… LOL
At first, I thought it was hiding now I think maybe something happened to it. I hear there is a chance it will make an appearance today, we’ll see.
The lack of sunshine didn’t stop me any more than the falling snow yesterday. I went out before dinner in search of a snowy sunset… ha ha ha
OK, I was really interested in seeing how the dam at Delta Lake looked in the snow. I was searching for an image to use on #MonochromeMonday and the textures at the dam would provide me more than a few opportunities. I circled the area around the dam and came home with a few good views. The bonus would be I managed to stay on my feet even though the snow and icy mist tried like hell to put me on my butt.

Monochrome Winter
Midday, Macro
Although the morning was full of snow the afternoon was bright and sunny. I took the opportunity to walk around the building during lunch to explore the winter landscape. With the wind blowing the snow off the roof and the plow still working on clearing the parking lot my exploring was cut a little short. I did manage to capture a few snow covered survivors…

Delta Lake State Park
I’ll admit I have a “thing” for photographing leafless trees in silhouette. There is a fascination with the amount of detail seen in the bare branches. These three trees at Delta Lake have been my subject numerous times throughout the years. I especially like when I have converted the image to black and white, which to me, greatly enhances the appeal of the silhouette. Plus, it works well for my Monochrome Winter series.

Monochrome Winter
Delta Lake State Park
It has been a long week. Around lunch yesterday I checked the forecast and discovered there would be clear skies for the sunset. I decided it was time to check out Delta Lake this year. I wasn’t sure what I would find but getting out of the house was the important objective. I expected the lake to be completely frozen over but that was not the case. The extremely low water level allowed me to explore of the shoreline and I found this interesting composition.
The color image was striking but the monochrome version is amazing. Maybe my preference is due to reading “Ansel Adams’ Yosemite: The Special Edition Prints”. More likely it is my penchant for converting the winter scenes to black and white. The color was a distraction and it had to go…

Delta Lake Dam
The image a couple of days ago was down at the water’s edge in front of the canal aqueduct. This is the big view of the damn as scene from the bridge over the river. As much as I like the dam, I’m more fascinated by the aqueduct. When building the dam, there still needed to be a way for the Black River Canal to be accessible so a series of locks was built on the right side of the dam and the aqueduct was constructed over the Mohawk River. I found this image on the Low Bridge Production website.

It would have been something to see this canal in operation. It has been close to a hundred years since there was travel on the Black River Canal. At least I can still explore this area and show a glimpse of the interesting history.
