I love the effects of wind blown snow on things around the yard. This is a shot of my gutter and solar light in my backyard. The solar light, dead center of the photo, looks like it has on a stocking cap made of crisp white snow. The gutters snow is of various depths from the wind blowing it around as well. It will not change much as we did have some moisture in the air causing the snow to hartden somewhat. I think scenes like this are actually very peaceful and or serene. What do you tjhink about snowy scenery? Does it make you feel at ease? Does't it have a calming effect for you at all?

In the attatched photo I also love the branch melted into the snow on the solar light. So many awesome scenes from the wind making art with the fresh snow.

Thanks bunches.
Here's a shot of the edge of my driveway showing the depth of the snow somewhat.
This is where the snow gets blown to when I clear the driveway.
It is about 2 1/2 feet right now and getting taller each day.

Just looking at the Christmas cards with their snowy scenes pictured makes me smile and I think it's the nearest I am going to get to see a proper snowy scene, it's been a long time since I have stepped out into a 'Winter Wonderland' yes it is very picturesque as well as very calming and there's something fresh, clean and comforting about a snowy scene when everything is covered by a white blanket. White signifies peace doesn't it and yes it makes me feel at ease and I love smelling the air too, fresh, crisp and healthy.

I may get outside in an hours time to get a new photo of the house all lit up for the Holiday with the fresh white snow as well. It is always a pretty scene.

Oh yes I do love pictures of snow. I think it is beautiful. When it starts turning to slush and getting dirty that is a different story. When I see pictures of snow I think of families in their homes with a big fire going in the fireplace, sipping on hot chocolate and just enjoying each other and life.

Yeah I hate brown snow a lot myself.
For a few days everything on the street side is very beautiful. Then the plows toss the sand and salt arouind truning it nasty. But the yards still look so beautiful. The pile on the solar light is really tall for such a small light too.

I wish there was snow down here in phoenix, I love the snow. It makes the scenery so soft and simple. So easy to look at. I also love the look of the wind marks too. Consider yourself lucky you get to enjoy snowfall :)
Have a great day!

Yes, the windblown snow on the ground does make for some awesome scenery. I'll have to get some later this week and add them here as well.

Hi GRANDPA BOB,
Yes I do love to watch the snow and it does gives that feeling, but sadley we haven't had any snow yet, so when it does come I would just stay indoors and look out to it.
