Quadruplet Tree in the Snow

Quadruplet Tree in the Snow

Over the past few days, we finally had some snow. (It has come and gone, thanks to today's rain.) But while it lasted, I went for walks in the snow and took some pictures with my phonecam. This is one of the photos I like best. Tonight I cropped the image, trying to balance the composition. Too much snow can be an obstacle, even a danger, and nobody wants to have too much of it. But still, I agree with our little dog that snow can be fun and it makes me feel like a kid to walk around in the snow just to look at everything. Snow changes how we see, bringing out patterns and textures and lines that usually go unnoticed.
