Snow Days

in #photofeed7 years ago

These are photos from what I have dubbed Snowpocalypse 2018. We get snow and ice here, but this was just different. And since we didn't get much at all last year, this was a bit of a shock for us!

This photo was actually taken after the "blizzard" had ended. It was still snowing, but not as hard. The birds were having fun playing in the snow. I accidentally scared them off. This one decided to rest a bit before going any distance.

I'm pretty sure we got more than 0.8 inches...

This is a statuette that we have in our backyard

I walked up to the top of the hill, facing into the wind and snow. It was COLD! My face was burning and going numb. The snow was actually going right into my eyes and I couldn't see!

This is a field at the top of the hill. It took me a minute to figure out why it looked like it hadn't gotten as much snow...

A road in my neighborhood

This was actually early on, before I walked up the hill, but after I had been outside for a little bit.

Back to the birds playing in the snow. They wouldn't let me get very close. I was surprised that they let me come as close as roughly 15 yards from them. Not real great for the lenses I have, but not horrible either.

Thanks so much! I know you're a newbie, but would you mind upvoting? It's ALWAYS helpful!

Awesome shots,
I havent been 0ut to much after snowfalls this year as I have been struggling to keep a flu and chest congestion so have tried to be careful and stay warm when I can

Yucky! You definitely need to take care of yourself! Make sure to drink plenty of fluids and get lots of rest!

And thanks! :)

Your welcome
And I am being sensible and taking care of myself

I've really enjoyed all of your photographs. I hate winter but it is pretty when you don't have to go out in it.

Your area looks just as cold and snow covered as our does.

Thanks! I can layer up and handle the cold, I just hate driving in the snow and ice! We had several days hit records of negative temps for our area...

Fresh snow looks so beautiful, and you have done a great job capturing it. The little birds add such a nice touch!

Love those little birds ;-)
