Metel'

I was finishing the last three batches of chocolates today when it started snowing heavily. So I had to decide whether to take a picture of the snow storm or to prevent the chocolate I was just melting from burning. When given a choice, I would - of course - always take that photo, risking to ruin a contact lens or a bar of chocolate (which luckily I didn't). You decide if it was worth it...

The photo was taken with a slow shutterspeed in order to make it look even stormier and not to show the single snowflakes. Falling snowflakes on a photo in my opinion always look like dirt.


Btw, metel' is the Russian word for blizzard.
