Landscape Photography on Lake Como | Wandering the Snowy Streets of Como

Описание: The day after the heavens opened and snow fell through the city, I decided to head out in the early morning, to wander the snowy streets and do some photography in the beautiful city of Como.

I went out long before sunrise, walking through the old town in the dark blue hour, looking for images as I made my way to the lake.

As I walked some subjects and images came to mind. The street lights and illuminations were creating a wonderful contrast of light and dark shadows.

I could tell that some of the architectural features I was wandering past would make amazing chiaroscuro black and white images. High contrast thanks to the very directional light found throughout the city.

After grabbing a couple of images of this dramatic light, I continued walking along the lake shore. Lake Como has been built up to the shore line, so there isn’t a lot of available objects to act as foreground interest. Luckily I had scoped a location that I thought would make a good image.

I made it to the end of my walk and snapped away a couple of different images of this viewpoint. The mountains are covered in snow in the background and the very Italian houses act as a great subject. I tried to take a panorama but it didn’t work out for reasons I explain in the video.
