Winter Shadows

Back in those good old days when I was driving, one of the things I really noticed was the shadows across some of the roads I drove down, usually quiet side roads .  These were the east-west roads of course and there was no traffic so I could just stop in the middle of the road and get a picture..  These were years with normal snowfall, much less than we're getting this year.  On bright sunny days the patterns were striking.

Sometimes the snow was sticky and outlined all the tree trunks in white.  Hope you enjoy these.

These are for Rosalea, who featured a similar photo in her post of Feb. 2nd on her blog Chronicles from the Hill.  Hope you all enjoyed them!

I could keep posting pictures of our snow - yes, it's snowing again today - but I don't want to overdo it, even though the snow is certainly overdoing it this year!  I don't remember seeing snow outside like this - ever!

  1. Those are all just beautiful! The third one down, particularly, looks so much like a place on our road. So happy to have inspired you to post these!
    The snowbanks out there now are much, much higher, and our road is not much wider than one lane with the banks tumbling back in after the plough comes through, as he can't get much speed up, pushing snow, coming up the hill. He came back up this morning and tried to wing the banks back, but there isn't much room between the edge of the road and the trees. Passing other vehicles will be dicey, but there isn't much traffic on our road, so not a big issue.
