Stunning Photographs Seen Here First!

Yesterday, I hired international photography superstar Ansel Adams to come and take some dramatic black and white photos of our house after Snowmageddon Round 2.

He named this one "Driveway Desolation."

And this one he titled, "Claustrophobic Mailbox."

Look for these stirring photos in an upcoming National Geographic and also for sale as oversized prints in those frame shops in your local mall.

Wow! Stunning! Dramatic!

I'm guessing all your local hardware stores are all sold out of snow blowers?

Alyssa said...

I'm jealous. All of our snow was pretty much immediately whisked away.

Becky said...

That is a crazy amount of snow! Your photos are amazing, Ansel.

Mia said...

I'm with Becky, that is a crazy amount of snow!! I get cold just looking at the pictures.

J, K, L, and D said...

That looks like our neighborhood, but your pictures are way prettier!

(Ew. I just said way.)

Geez! Have a little snow why don't ya?!

If you had asked Ryan to hire Ansel, I'm sure he would have said something like this, "He would do a great job, but he's dead."

I think. If not, you just gave him some stiff competition with "Driveway Desolation".

Christy said...

WOW! They really are stunning!

Tiffany said...

I am in awe of how much snow that is, and how you got the walls of your driveway to be so perpendicular. That's crazy skills. And awesome pictures too!

LUCKY!

Wow, Tiff! My back hurts just looking at all of that snow. I think that justifies a trip to the local Home Depot for a giant snow blower!

Makes me want to wrap up and read a good book with a cup of chocolate sitting in a bay window.
Beautiful picutes.

Reminds me of a winter of watching Ryan from the other side of the street and you helping dig us out with a garden shovel. Awww... winter... how I love to hate you.
PS Were the pictures really in color instead of black and white and shades of grey are all you can see with the snow and no leaves on the trees? Either way, beautiful.

Incredible Tiff. Great photos Ansel.

Andrea Mouritsen said...

That must have been extremely expensive! You're rich!

Angie said...

That is increadible! I'm a little envious. And, I though Ansel Adams was dead....I stand corrected.

i just want to point out that it was 60 degrees here today.

and that i have a spare bed with clean sheets, just waiting for my blogging bff tiffany.

but if you're gonna have snow, it might as well be photographed in a glamorous fashion.

Annie said...

i'd pay good money for those photos, and even more to keep the snow there and not here!!!

katie said...

Those claustrophobic mailboxes are not fun for mailmen. Love the pictures!

I spent the last 9 days in a TV-free zone in Texas. Also radio and almost internet free. So I totally missed out on the whole East Coast snow barage news thing. I guess it snowed there? A titch?
