A Moment in Time, November 28, 2010.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

\"This<\/a>
This was my Christmas card for 2010.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

It doesn\u2019t snow in Dublin very often, and when it snows it rarely stays on the ground for long. It had started snowing heavily overnight on November 28, 2010 and when I awoke, there was a fresh blanket of snow all over everything.<\/p>\n

I made the most of morning. Among the locations I selected was along the LUAS tram line that follows the Grand Canal.<\/p>\n

A man was feeding the birds and these were circling. Using my Canon EOS 7D with 200mm lens, I made a series of photos of an inbound LUAS Citadis tram heading toward the city center from Tallagh.<\/p>\n

The birds in flight make an already unusual situation even more interesting. They add depth and life to a cold and frosty scene. The tram itself is almost incidental. Yet we can follow its progress along the canal, its tracks gradually descending in the distance.<\/p>\n
