snow joke, can’t take nice photos
So. It’s snowing. I’ve mentioned that once or twice today. Some people thought I should take pictures. Now I’m wet (because I still refuse to wear a coat) and mildly disappointed. We’ll add snow to the list of things I can’t adequately capture with a camera.
Dogwood. This tree is gnarly.
I kinda like the redbud leaves amongst the black and white
whatever. at least you can see we’re getting a couple inches.
naturally the prettiest tree is not in my yard.
helpless little roses
So don’t tell me I never did anything for you.

oh what a glorious experience to dodge the snowflakes while trying to capture their beauty!! you did good!! I hope we get some snow this year!!
@windupherskirt - i didn’t dodge too many of them. it’s still snowing!!
Poor little roses! Our first snow should come some time in November. Hopefully not too soon!
Hey, wow, that’s a good amount of snow… so I guess it’s-snow-joke after all… but I thought you promise-sunshine…
@JstNotherDay - i promise a lot of things.
Thank you for your comment
. Oh my goodness! I do the same thing! I love taking picture of untouched snow, especially when there’s trees. It’s like stilled life but without the portrait frame :p.
I think you are being a bit hard on yourself for your photos. I am taking a photog class and learning that so much is about the time of day, and the lighting. Things seldom look as good as they do to the eye.
Oh, and thanks for your kind words at my post today.
@vexations - thanks. I’ll keep practicing- both snapping photos and cutting myself some slack.
I love waterfalls. It’s amazing how you captured the movement of the water. Very, very cool. (not to go on and on or anything)
Oh, feel free to go on and on……I’m so vain….. I wish they had a mini for slack…. let me see if I can find one…maybe huge props will help. @promisesunshine -
@vexations - oooh! my first ever mini. life just keeps getting better and better.
You have never had a “mini” Amazing…. I’m sure there are more to come.
I guess we will have to stop meeting like this,,,,, people on Xanga will start to talk… Ha.
@vexations - isn’t that the whole purpose?
’cause people on Xanga LIKE to talk.
Sounds like a good title for a country music song, “Let’s give them something to talk about.”
@vexations - one of my favorites.
oooO.Ooo…..
hey, those pics are entirely adequate. in fact, they’re wonderful. quite a dusting you got there
thank you.
heh “i promise a lot of things”…
HEY!
waitjustaminute…is there something going on between you and vexations?
@vexations - one of my faves too. bonnie raitt, i believe. at least the version i’m thinking of. it’s the perfect song for…well…so many occasions.
@complicatedlight - you betcha! he gave me a mini.
I really like the first picture! It’s so strange seeing snow on top of the colorful leaves.
@oxlorixo - thanks. it was a nice surprise.
I LOVE THESE PICTURES THEY ARE BEAUTIFUL PICTURES! yeah.
@be_the_rain - thank you
I loved the one of the roses in the snow. You did just fine!
jus’ me – cm
@IMChurchmouse - thanks!
