OK, we've had a couple of dustings before this, but this is the first snow that stayed. About four inches, much less than predictions. I think just north and east of us got hit harder.
I still like the hush and the soothing effect of the colors toned down by the snow. There are green, brown, white, blue, but somehow the effect is monotone.
Suddenly, the little pine tree that was hardly noticeable out in the field pops out,
while the tree line and horizon are muted
Yellow leaves still hug the path, but the path is now so obvious, until more snows flatten the grass. And wild animals aren't stupid. They will use a pathway that is easily traveled if it's going where they want to get to.
The clouded sky let through just a bit of light, for a wonderful Tyndall effect.

Snow is beautiful...even if I am not really happy about seeing it just yet. Wasn't it just yesterday it all melted? I think last winter was just so darn long.

Love the little pine, just perfect for a walkers Christmas tree.
ReplyDeleteI do love the snow but not as I did when young.
The weather here is still confused, I hope I am wrong but I am expecting a bad winter.
There is a beauty in the snow. A beauty that highlights the beauty of our world. It looks so clean and pure, and yet, it is so easily defiled.
ReplyDeleteas much as I hate snow I won't deny that it makes for a pretty landscape.
ReplyDeleteWonderful pictures. That little pine tree is beautiful. I'd string it with popcorn and crannberries for the birds for Christmas.
