After 30.5

My attempt at a shot for the landscape challenge of week#2. This is Riordan Mansion after our last set of storms and the gift of 30.5 inches of snow. Posting a bit early for tomorrow.

@graemestevens Thank you very much, one of the great things about being at 7000 ft, the sky is so blue.

@nanderson Thank you, I am a volunteer at the mansion. It is a great canvas to play with.

It's got that lovely brisk wintry feel with such wonderful light - beautiful! :)

This photo reminds me of those years I lived near Mt. Hood. I would come home from work, strap on the snowshoes and walk down the road to the house. This is a great shot.
Thanks for reminding me what snow looks like on a sunny, but cold day. Fav

@flyingleap Thank you so very much for the fav. This time the snow was behaving itself and just draping over the fences. I don't think that we are done yet.

@nydelignorsk Thank you very much for the fav. I agree that it looks like the Mt. Hood Sky Lodge although much smaller. When the sun shines and the sky is blue, snow is very peaceful. We may try snow shoes soon, 1-3 more today.

Very nice. Is this usa?

@amfrumbiddivurd Thank You. This is in Flagstaff Arizona. The mansion is an Arts and Crafts design so it kinda looks like a Swiss Chalet.

[Call me Joe]

Incredible capture!!:)

Great shot! Love the contrast between the blue sky and snow.

[Octogenarian]

Beautiful winter view.
But who said that snow was white? :)

[Walks @ 7]

@octogenarian Thank you very much, I think that you are right- snow has many different shades and personalities.

@sketch2 @joemuli Thank you so very much, lots of snow is almost romantic until you grab the shovel.

[Jules Hoogstra-Anderson]

Lovely colour and lighting.

@juleshoogstraanderson Thank you. This is a great old house here in town.
