Shadows and Highlights - Snow Edition (Holly Schindler)

 This week, we got hit with the biggest snowstorm of the year. Not as big as predicted (15"), but big enough (7"). 

That rain gauge of mine is backward because it got blown around by the wind and I took the pic through the back door. It was also a wind chill of -20 (!), so there was no way I was going out there if I didn't have to.

I love this picture, though--mostly, I love the sun on the snow just behind the shadow closest to the camera. 

Isn't that the way it always is, when we are in the midst of a cold and shadowy time? Isn't there always a little sun just beyond it?
