Snow!

Ladies and gentlemen, it has SNOWED, finally. And in celebration I went on a shooting spree. I don't claim to be a photography, and none of these pictures are edited, which testifies to the gorgeousness of the day. 

The ever adorable King's English played host to a marriage proposal today. Absolutely fantastic. And she said yes (how could you not?) 


A lamp post standing next to a bunch of wheat. Straw, hay? I'm not sure. Something that should be on a farm of some sort. I liked this picture, though, because the tree and the wheat (?) make it very textured, which is nice in a picture with a limited palette. 


We still had some apples on the tree. They are a little gushy though, so no eating, ok?  


 Don't you just love it!? I think I love taking pictures in the winter so much because there is always a high contrast. The snow and sky are always light, and everything else is so dark it almost looks like a silhouette. The many clouds also soften the light, making it delicate. Just gorgeous. 


 I love this shot, because of the tall center tree, and the difference between each side of the frame, the light and dark, bright and purplish. Lovely. 

 On the street where I live. *sigh


Our trampoline could use some springs, huh? It is kind of a random picture, but something about the composition grabs me. Maybe it's the large blank space of snow, and the various fields of depth. I dunno. Maybe it's just the memories.
