Sunny Day Melting the Snow Away by alophoto

Sunny Day Melting the Snow Away

Ok, so it didn't much melt the snow, but the sun did break free and rise and the combo of sunshine and snow is one of my very favorite things. So much better than a dull, gray, bitter cold snowy day.

And there wasn't much snow. Only an inch or two. It has been a pretty mild and hardly snow filled year for us.

I could use another good snow or two for playing in. I don't really feel like I have been able to capture winter like I did fall or spring either. I'm not so attracted to the leafless trees and browns of the season, but when the world is white with snow...then it's a wonderland.
This is really a pretty shot with the sunlight lurking behind the snow-covered branches. I keep staring and must give it a fav! :-)

Beautiful lighting through those trees! They do look so much better with snow on them.

Just the right touch of sun - I love the contrast of the tree with the brightness of the light behind it. It is a perfect combination - fav for me.

Beautiful shot, Amanda! I love when the snow frosts the limbs of trees like this and you have just the right amount of sunshine in the composition. It's stunning and a fav!

Same story here at our end

I'm with you... still a child when it comes to snow... beautiful image!
February 6th, 2015  
@sbolden I think I am a child when it comes to seasons in general. Still soo magical and awesome to me as I had so much of my life without them. Then again, perhaps I am just a child;-).

I think you've captured it gorgeously. But if you really want it, c'mon back up to NH!
February 6th, 2015  
love the way you captured the light x
February 7th, 2015  
Great shot!
February 7th, 2015  
@squamloon I want to see NH in the fall. Maybe not so much the winter:). LOVE the snow, though, just not feet upon feet of it!
February 7th, 2015  
Great snow shot! If you want to see a NH fall, go in early Oct. Fall starts in late September! The White mountains are especially beautiful. Check out Plume Gorge in Lincoln area.

Feb 7 guess you are getting a head start on the weekend. Beautiful sunrise shot. Have a nice weekend with the family
February 7th, 2015  
Lovely! We don't have snow yet.
February 7th, 2015  
I agree... it is beautiful!
February 7th, 2015  
Beautiful lighting through those trees! A fav for me
February 7th, 2015  
I love it when snow falls soft enough to line each little limb on a tree. Our last snow came without wind which allowed this very thing to happen. So pretty, just like this scene in your picture.
February 7th, 2015  
this is beautiful.
February 9th, 2015  
So lovely, Amanda. Fav.
February 9th, 2015  
Very lovely! fav!

Love the snow on the branches. Makes for such a wonderful photo and nice to have the sunrise to enhance it. FAV

Beautiful light coming through the branches....yes, it doesn't look like the midwest got as much snow as the east coast this year. I have been vicariously experiencing winter through other 365ers eyes....and, that's probably the way I like it! ;-))
