Snowstorm: the sunshine breaks through

There was a blizzard that flew out of the mountains this evening. Huge snowflakes swirled around the trees off my deck and it was a really beautiful storm to watch. As the sun began to set, it fell below the storm clouds and sunlight backlit the trees and the snow. A surreal dreamscape that was great to photograph.

Hey Chris
These images are just wonderful even though I’m not overly impressed that you took them on April 28. You have a very fine eye for presenting your subjects in a unique and beautiful fashion. Keep it up.
Love
Dad

Your snow pictures are beautiful. I’m getting a bit tired of posting snow pictures on my blog, though. I want to be able to post tulip pictures…

I hear you Marg – just working with what I have infront of me :). Hopefully that becomes layers of green soon.
