Well folk, guess what I've been doing for the last couple of days - not a lot of accumulation only 10cm/4in on this day and got 5cm in only 1 hour. Also snowed a couple of days before this - but at least that goes away. Wednesday weather is another storm (Arctic Vortex) coming in, Pooh. Today's temperature this morning was -10C/14F with a windchill of -14C/6.8F, burr, high of today is -7C/19F

Captured this of course on Friday (2016, 04-01) out our front door.

Just brought out some detail in Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 and then iPiccy.com to make it smaller.

Comments most appreciated and thanks in Advance.

Have a sunny day, ♥ Skates

As Sandi said it would make a good B/W challenge entry, thanks my friend, I think I'll do that.

Thank You so Much for your Congratulations on my 2nd place win in "Tools of the Trade" contest. I'm thrilled.

That's cold Pat! I can only imagine temps like that. We are having an Indian Summer with temps around 25C.

Pat, perhaps you're suffering from the cold (if so, I've compassion for your you), but any disadvantage has its own advantage: you've provided us with a splendid B&W wint'ry (or spring? lol) composition. A perfect entry for the Wednesday B&W challenge.
Very well done, my friend!

Well, Pat - I'd like to say keep it, but it is snowing in CT again today. The daffodils are hanging their heads low in disappointment. A wonderful composition!

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust
