SteemitPhotoChallenge Entry #22 - Shrine in the middle of a snowstorm
Hi all! These are my entries for SteemitPhotoChallenge of this week
These photos were taken last Sunday especially for the contest. I had no pictures on the topic of this week. But I did not want to miss this week's contest.
Since the theme of the competition "Sacred", I decided to take night shots of churches and mosques.
The weather is not very conducive to a shooting. There was a snow storm and a strong wind. The air temperature was -18 degrees Celsius.
I was not sure what might happen from the pictures taken in this weather. But I decided to be sure to perform this task.
These photographs were taken in three different locations. I traveled more than 50 km in order to make them all.
Strong wind ruined a lot of shots because it staggered a camera on a tripod. I have not encountered such a problem before. But I still have something to show you.
The noise that you see on the photos - it snow. It is not visible in the foreground. But it is perfectly visible in the rays of light.
I think that these pictures are very suitable for Christmas.
I hope you will enjoy.
