Winter Scenes

Stop and smell the roses, and while you're at it take a picture or two.

Winter Scenes

The snow this past Saturday was perfect, coated the trees, but the roads were clear. Sunday morning, Andi dutifully took some pics for me.

This morning, after Wednesday snowfall:

Icy road, pretty trees

Morning moon over a long farm driveway and fields

Edge of the reservoir, just up the road a piece:

Glad you like them! These recent snows (and the predicted one for tonight/Saturday) are the best kind.
Pretty up the landscape a bit, go away quickly. :wink:

The calendar idea is EXACTLY why I dragged Andi outside.
Me: "Stand right here. I am going up the road and coming back. Take it from this angle. Try to not clutter up the background. Don't move and blur the image."
Andi: "Get on the damn bike. I'm freezing. Is this part of official first lady duties?!?"

Or a great shot for an action movie. Just imagine or photoshop a group of terrorists coming over the hill, chasing Bond, Maria Bond, and she is making her getaway on the GS. :Blaster: (I really need to stop watching so many action movies recently). 8)

Our driveway is really more of a large parking pad in front of the garage. It was clear Sunday morning.
