Post Blizzard Black and White Back Yard "Snowscape"

The sun peeked out around 11:00 this morning, and this is what my backyard looked like. The east coast got slammed with a lot of snow and a lot of wind. I use to spend an enormous amount of time photographing landscapes right after big snow storms, mainly on coastal New England beaches. The image below was made with an 8x10 view camera on a tripod right off my back deck. I can't wait to shovel out my vehicle and head for the beach.
