Ice Storm

Wisconsin is still covered in white, although we did miss the forecasted storm earlier this week. It is the FIRST time this season that we did not get dumped on when ‘dumping on’ was predicted. Those darned weatherpersons finally made a wrong call - ’bout time. It isn’t nice to be perfect all the time.

I still have enough winter photographs to post daily until 2009, or perhaps even until 2010, but in honor of Leap Year Day tomorrow, I promise a photo that will soothe all the sun-starved, me included.

  1. I was wondering where the snow went. Nice to see it’s still around. It does look as if someone came along to flock all the trees & brush. Very nice & soft.

  2. I really like the sepia look with a bit of brightness in between of this photograph. Snow… I don’t believe there is an end in sight here in Kansas as more snow is expected by Monday. Save one of your winter photographs to post in mid July. LOL That would definitely be something different. And it will be winter in the Southern Hemisphere. I’m looking forward to what you got for tomorrow. :)

  3. I like what you did with this, the spots of color/brightness coming through the trees.

    Lovely.

    I’m looking forward to tomorrow and whatever it is you have to sooth the sun-starved. :)

  5. Is this a sepia or a vintage look? Man, it’s gorgeous!

  6. Very nice shot — looks like a vintage postcard. If you have something to soothe the sun-starved, I’m all over it — can’t wait!

  8. I hear you, we’ve had enough winter here in MI to last through next year too. My husband and I are on strike, we’re only clearing enough driveway to get in and out, the rest will just have to melt…someday :)
