Magic Light in the Snowy Forest

















Earlier this week after photographing an AMAZING sunrise at Horseshoe Bay on Lake Superior I was walking back to the car when I came across this scene.  About 4 inches of light, fluffy snow had fallen the previous night and every now and then a wind gust would kick up and blow snow from the trees.  When I saw the sunlight shining through this part of the forest I instantly knew the shot I wanted to get. I set up my tripod and waited for another gust of wind.  I didn't have to wait long.  About two minutes after I was set up the wind came up and blew a bunch of snow from the trees down into the light.  It was a magical scene and I'm glad I was there to photograph it!
