Okay - post ONE seriously hard-core snow picture from your current project and we'll try and out-snow each other. :o) Mine's from the top end of the year, Day 6 to be precise:
Ok, here's mine. It was freakin colder than Barrow, Alaska, here in the Pacific NW, thanks to The Arctic Blast. For those of you not familiar with the US. Barrow sits on the most northern point of the continent right on the Arctic Ocean. You can not only see Russia but one can snowmobile to it in winter when the water is frozen.
I think this pic is more pretty than scary haha. But all this snow fell within just a couple hours and the roads were reeaallly bad. ALL the schools were canceled for the day!
Well, Matt, I live in north Alabama US, so little snow ever here and it's not even the right time of the year for us to get that white blanket. LOL I do have an awesome pic of the nice one we had a couple of years ago(March) and it's an amazing photo too. I was blessed to have captured it. It looks 3D and I have three all together that are of these amazing looking trees. Let me know, if you want me to post. Like I said, not a lot of snow. :-)
You'll have to click on the link as it's 350 photos I put together into a video on Youtube and used on January 8th for my post. Should do another one really ...
I have to wait until Saturday to do this. "they" say we will get a good snow that day. It has snowed north of us and south of us, but central Iowa is still a snow free zone.
I live in Sacramento, CA so getting snow here is an oddity. That being said, I live two hours away from Tahoe so I drove there over the weekend for some shots of the first snow. If the weather holds, I will be back again this weekend! Not sure if this counts as hard core but I do think it is beautiful!
At the bottom of Snoqualmie Pass, we get to witness trucks and cars chaining up, or the road closed altogether...
Sometimes the pass is closed for avalanche control. (they blow up the snow) sometimes its closed because of an accident, or sometimes its closed because its just not passable..
I think if it snowed where I lived, I would be in too much shock to even remember a camera..... either that or I would be checking my food to see who put drugs in it and made me hallucinate!!!
It may not look so 'hard core' but driving up the steep, unplowed roads with a car that has an open differential and no ABS, the morning after a major storm was a bit scary. Getting back down was even more scary.
We have had no snow yet...I am getting depressed looking at all the pics! I want snow! And since I started the project this June....I have no hardcore snow pics!
It's the middle of Summer in Australia and doesn't snow where I am so I'll sit here in the sweltering heat and check out all the gorgeous snow photos :-)

We have had a good amount of snow here in Denmark already :)

Some great pics here though!

All my sizes for my photos never load, it gets stuck, anyone else have this problem?
This one was done a little differently. I put my own snow scene photo inside of a snow globe... just to be different!!!
Not only did we get about 11 inches of snow, but now it's -4 and we have a wicked wind. Not very pleasant to be outside.
