Guess what....
More snow pictures! At least something good is coming of this.....
We took a walk, but the walk was aborted halfway [there's no law against that yet], so I didn't get quite as many pictures as I could've. As it is, I got nearly a hundred. The selection of thumbnails at the top of this post is random, and everything after this is a [very large] selection of things that I thought were worth actually posting. I'll try to thumbnail as many of them as I possibly can.
We entered the realm of not-dialup-friendly ages ago, though, didn't we?
Anyway, on with the snow....
The drift out front has gotten a bit driftier.
I thought it was an interesting pattern.
More of the same, I guess. The visible ground and the snow covering stuff. It looks an awful lot like a shot I got yesterday.
The snow is actually a little deeper than cars at some points.
It took a minute to find the bike path, which, as it turns out, was stupid, because the actual street in the opposite direction had been scraped a few times. It's just that nobody can get through here because a bunch of people abandoned their cars....
This car is actually in a driveway. Good for it.
I'm not really tall enough for this sort of thing, but BDU trousers are surprisingly warm and not really all that...getting-wet-ish.
I really like this shot. I like the way all the needles are bunched together in a funny sort-of bell shape.
A bit of gate.
And while we're at it, let's just get all the fence shots out of the way in a row of thumbs....
I was trying to get the leaf. I didn't see the holes from other stuff falling off trees around it. I guess that worked out okay, though.
Also, snow is sparkly. Oooh.
Here comes a bunch of trees. I think I won't say anything for a while....
Gremlin took this one. I guess he didn't notice it was on the low-light scene setting. It wouldn't be this blurry, otherwise.
Do you see it watching you? It watches....
Speaking of IT, this might be where Pennywise lives. When everything's thawed, it's a funny, rusty thing that looks like it should have bars.
Snow on drainage things!
It's all so neat. I can't get enough of these shots...wait, maybe I can.
Okay, last one.
The snow's all flat and has a sharp edge. I thought it was neat.
This is another of the paths, leading to...somewhere. I'm not sure I've ever gone that way. But there are trees, and a light, and it looks all shadowey in this shot, which is kinda neat.
It's another of those shots....
Actually, it's a car, and not a drainage grate.
Another direction we didn't go. This, in fact, is where we turned back. I was slightly disappointed.
Big tree, yellow house, firey sky.
And here's a couple more trees.
I think I found Nessie. Maybe.
Another tree.
Some funny fog. Perhaps the wind blowing snow.
A streetlight. Also, some snow.
These are the tracks we made when we were heading toward the path. They're already a little...snowed-over.
I'm sure you remember that car.
SCARY CAT!
Scary, sun-eyed cat happened because 1. flash on inside the house with no red-eye reduction turned on [if that even works on cats], 2. I'd just brought the camera inside from outside, where inside was 68 and outside was rather more twentyish than senior-benefits-gettingey, so some foggy thing started happening somewhere inside my camera. It scared the hell out of me, because I thought I'd managed to destroy it. All better now, though.
← A couple more of those window pictures.... Suspended until further notice...will resume when conditions are safe. →
