Not really much to say about this one. Obviously taken a while back before it had gotten cold. And sitting in my freezing cold basement I can’t appreciate the warm summer colors.

Reston Citizen would agree with the photographer that the Reston Used Book Store is an “Adorable 2nd hand book store.” We particularly loved the sepia colors which gives a strong impression of used books.

Flickr user I Am Adam is showing a new style of cross processed* pinhole photography. *Cross processing use to be deliberately putting the wrong chemicals in the photo lab. Assuming this is film this is some nice old school processing and none of that fake Photoshop crap I do.

At Reston Citizen we love snow days, even if school stays open for the day. Unlike some of last years storms VDOT handled the white stuff pretty well. Most of the streets in Hunters Woods where fine, but a lot of the snow had melted and will probably freeze as the temperature dips to 19 degrees. So tomorrow will probably be the real test of how well VDOT does with snow removal.
The snow fall wasn’t without issues. There was one accident at the top of a hill in which one automobile skidded into another parked at a stopped sign. Fairfax County Public Schools has canceled all evening activities.
About an two inches have fallen, and snow fall will continue until 12 midnight, with occasional flurries into the early morning. The National Weather Service has warned of ice buildup during the dark hours, and that bridges will be icy late into the day, so be careful driving.
It’s amazing all the different views people can get on the few buildings at the Reston Town Center. This displays the recently completed lofts, and relatively new condos.

Another picture of the Reston Town Center. The yellow line creates a well balanced image, and works well with the yellow sunset.
