2nd time snow in heilbronn!

i was sitting on the bus returning home from my class that i saw snowed had covered the vineyard hills and its surrounding.



soon as i reached home, chucked my school bag and took my camera and walked towards the wine yard hills and photographed. it was a brief 15 minutes afternoon walk to get there. it was not too cold either, at 1 degree celsius!


here are pictures from the whole-day-snowfall came down on us on tuesday, dec.11. these pictures was taken yesterday. enjoy!

















because live near water, a small lake though... the snow did not stick on the ground, unless it was a heavy snow ....

first snow flurries in Heilbronn

i was supposed to put up this blog last weekend but the photos didn't come out well, so here i am with few of my ready snow-story to tell ...
view from our bedroom window of a train track
and street covered with light snow

yes! it finally snow flurries on Friday night! the first thing i did after getting up at quarter to 7 o'clock on Saturday morning was to pull up our bedroom blinds and saw some snows left on the ground. so happy saya... and what happened next...


i grabbed my camera ... this is one of my favorite catch of a still lake, pretty forestry feeling

children playground powered in snow
before heading home, i past this bridge and lucky to look back - i saw this view!
and last but not finish yet... i signed my trademark name on this untouched first snowfall...
more photos here at Picasa, i would view them in slideshow! Enjoy!NinaOA©

NinaOA's first models: Dulce & John

more photos there >> NinaOA PicasaWebAlbum
just posted Dulce's photographs earlier on and i just received John's approval to share his photogenic pose here for me.
i got John pretending to read a book near a natural light to get some soft light shining on his face.
and here, he sat by the window's sill with nearly perfect autumn natural sunlight...
oh... before we end our one-hour photos session, i got Dulce and John to pose like James Bond 007! playing safe, hands gun sign do worked well here with John hardly pulled Dulce's necktie... as you can see, they posed so naturally and so relax. i am a happy photographer to see this satisfied results. Thank you so much guys!
we made some impromptu photography session last week after class and i was already excited to blog about this. Unfortunately time was not so much on my side with school homework must finished first, then the weekend came to spend quality time with my dear husband and the house chores i can't bewitched them with my nose to get them sorted out in a second!!! hence, this dragging delay until today... thank you for patiently waiting for my update ...
you know i have never posted individual portrait of a PERSON for many good reasons. Having my classmates (yes, my international classmates) as my models, i am pleased Dulce allowed me to publish my work online. i have yet to wait for my male model confirmation for an A-OK but i didn't see him in class today....
having no model knowledge photography background, my models, Dulce and John made it so much easier for me to photograph them. we worked spontaneously. no serious pose. just dress to kill. smile here and there a little bit and the afternoon natural lights coming in from the windows in this dim room made these photos, magical ;))
Thank you Dulce and John for allowing me to publish your photos here. By the way dear Blogger - Dulce is used to photograph in front of professional photographers, speaking of a model herself. that's why we don't have to tell each other how to pose. She is a happy-go-lucky beautiful lady, dress to kill even to class :)))
