…I started out in the morning when the snow was still light
I knew that as the snow accumulated throughout the day I was less likely to get out for my walk so I bundled up and headed out mid-morning. On the way as the snow started to accumulate on the plants and trees I stopped to take a few shots of the freshly fallen ice crystals.

Beautiful pictures. I have often walked early to beat the storm. Looks like you were cutting it close.

It snowed like that for most of the day. The real accumulation came about later in the day and into the evening.

What atmospheric shots.. I especially love the thistles (?) and the really feathery snow on the leaves!!!

Thanks Judy, the thistles are actually burrs from the burdock plant.

Couldn’t think of what else to call them. Thanks, Carol.

Lovely! I really like the third one from the top. That leaf looks like an insect, maybe a leaf cutter ant.

Interesting observation. I always find it interesting what people see in my photos.

That’s the beauty of blogging (or any kind of creating + publishing, whatever the method), I think.
