Over the years, I have always enjoyed changing up my daily commute, whenever possible. I find it more relaxing to drive down smaller, scenic roads and see changes in their scenery. Another aspect that I like is the ability to stop and capture an occasional roadside vista that inspires me.

Today’s image is the result of one of those stops…

Boxborough Pond

On a January morning there was just a bit of ice forming across this pond. This produced some rather cool colors in the foreground with a bit of warm light hitting the treetops. This is one of those images that I’m still not 100% happy with, but it’s on its way to something acceptable for my portfolio.

Do you get the opportunity to stop and photograph during your daily commute?

  1. I walk everywhere and always end up stopping to take photos, or get left behind when I’m walking along with others.

    1. Stopping to take a photo is a great indication that you’re taking in the world around you better than most. Great use of all walks. 👍
