Same song, different verses - first there are leaves, next comes snow

Posted by Fred Steiner on February 11, 2015 - 8:38pm

Bluffton photographer Dennis Morrison provides Icon viewers with an interesting series of photos that are more difficult to take than you might at first think.

Last fall he photographed scenes at the Bluffton University college cabin and Riley Creek along Bixel Road.

Then, following the recent heavy snowfall, he repeated his photography. 

The result is an interesting collection of two scenes - one from fall and the other from winter.

Open the attachment at the bottom of this story to view his work.
