Ottawa from the sledding hill

Day 2 - I enjoyed taking pictures today. This is my favorite! We got about 6 inches of snow overnight and school was canceled! Hooray for a Snow Day!!! I took the kids sledding this evening. We have a fun sledding hill that overlooks the Illinois river. This picture was taken from the top of the sledding hill at 6:14 p.m., just after it got dark. I used a setting on my camera that I have never used before. It is called High Sensitivity. It is used to shoot without flash in low-light to reduce blur. I am very please with how it turned out!!! I think that Project 365 is going to be great! I hope to learn a lot about photography.
