Fresh Fallen Snow by digitalrn

Fresh Fallen Snow

Well, this morning we had our second measurable snow, but still nothing significant. Woke up to about two and a half inches. It provided me with a wonderful drive to work this morning. Everything looked freshly white washed, and as I passed over one of my favorite spots, I had to stop briefly to take a few photos. I love how the snow has softly kissed the trees, and nicely outlined the edges of the stream. Everything was so quiet and peaceful. Till this afternoon, it was almost all gone.
This does really look peaceful. Beautiful shot Rick! The slight snow on the trees and the outline of the water were the very first things I noticed.

Rick, thi is absolutely beautiful! We had snow as well, and maybe if I had a scene like this, I would appreciate it a lot more! A fav!

Wow! I love how you framed this! It pays to stop "and smell the roses" or capture the snow :0)

What a beautiful spot to capture for today's photo. Nicely done. Glad it warmed up for the afternoon.

Rick this is fantastic! I typically only do b&w conversions on images that have an intriguing or moody sort of tone to them - and this one sure does. It makes me curious about what is further down that creek.
