David Martin's "A Frosty Morn"

This morning I stopped by the Starbucks in Ft. Thomas, KY to pick up some coffee and spent some time looking at David N. Martin's A Frosty Morn series of photographs. Presumably taken during this past year's winter storm in Cincinnati, the gallery is a collection of snow and ice scenes which detail the weather's effects.

I particularly enjoyed the three "Suspension" images which show a close up look at branches encased in perfect tubes of crystal-clear ice. Another favorite of mine was "By foot": a black and white snowbound environment where the only indication of city life is a pedestrian caution sign that pops up out of the landscape. Cool shot!

David's gallery display reminded me of my own adventures in this past winter. Visit my previous blog post, Frozen Cincinnati 2007 to have a look at some scenes from the Spring Grove Cemetery and the Cincinnati Observatory.

I'd encourage you to stop by and take a look at David's work, either on his MK Photography website or by visiting the Ft. Thomas Starbucks. The former is great because you don't have to buy any coffee, but the latter is even better since you can pick up some good coffee while you're there!
