small beauties, snow edition

[ Snow caught in green pinyon needles. ]

I really gotta get me & the camera out more often when the snow is still fresh.

Cos it does THIS.

[ A spiky bush sticks out of the snow; next to it, the snow has been blown into tiny dunes. ]

Also it packed down nicely enough to get a REALLY good print of the bottom of my snow boot!

[ My boot print on a stairstep — the treads depict a tipi with a fire in front of it & mountains rising behind. ]

Snow in tiny plant bits.

[ A close view of the spiky bush; snow is caught in between the tiny stems. ]

Plus I tried to get a good picture of these bird footprints, which didn’t really work, but I LOVE what hitting ‘white balance’ did to the picture!

[ Three tiny bird prints in the snow; the image is pretty grainy, and part of it is overlaid with pale blue, while the rest is split between pink and yellow. ]

I wandered around for maybe half an hour, after which I was QUITE happy to just go home. It was a nice walk!

These are great! Fresh snow has so many photographic opportunities, if you can just get to it before someone's spoiled it. (Ice, too.)

Yessss, it's about the only good thing about ice from the sky.
