I really like this Mary. Did you take some other shots. would love to see closer up towards the fence and snow covered houses. Love that white stuff.
Mary MacADNski: I do have more but none uploaded for this week/ I will put some up for next week.
the snow looks wonderful. Good job.
Mary MacADNski: It is very pretty.
That's a very nice shot.

Startling, beautiful, wonderfully presented post, Mary.
Hardly Great White Nothing, if I am seeing this post correctly.
Mary MacADNski: Thanks, Ray. We had a thaw since this but are expecting a storm tonight.

I must say, Mary, that YOUR snow takes the cake! And I bet this is what you get when there's global warming. It would probably be twice this much otherwise?! smile I love it.
Mary MacADNski: We've had hardly any snow the last couple of years and now after a January thaw, there is hardly any left. To remedy that, a storm is coming tonight and tomorrow. We had four storms the first week of Jan.
Just a magnificent shot Mary. The colours and the brightness are wonderful
Mary MacADNski: I loved the blue.

The sun and the snow seem to have combined to give that shadow a lovely blue hue.
Would love to see more of the distant houses in the shot without losing to much of the shadow.
I won't suggest a ladder seeing how your still one handed smile
Mary MacADNski: That snow is all gone now though we're getting a storm tonight.
Beautiful blue cast on the shadow! What a lovely Winter scene... Congratulations, Mary!
Mary MacADNski: I love what a sunny blue sky does to the snow!

Great shot Mary I just want to be the first to walk through the fresh snow...smile
Mary MacADNski: Jump on the jet. We're having a storm tonight.
Seems so cold, so pure, and so silent. I really love snowy landscapes.
Mary MacADNski: It was the first day out after four back to back storms. The sun was shining and it was a beautiful day to be out.

I like all the different shades of blue, Mary.
Mary MacADNski: Starting with the sky, that caused all those blues.

Love this - the strong shadow gives it a very graphic feel and the colours are so pure.

Mary MacADNski: The sun does it's job...
Oh Mary, that blue shadow makes this such a striking photograph. Beautiful light, too. (:o)
Mary MacADNski: That lovely blue sky is the cause of it all.
Now I know you never "twiddle" so this has to be a straight shot. Love it Mary!
Mary MacADNski: It is absolutely. Straight out of the camera. Someone suggested 'I remove the blue' from another snow shot but when the sky is blue snow and it's shadows are blue.

gorgeous contrast here Mary, with the shadow and the snowsmile
Mary MacADNski: T'was a great day to be out.
I can even see the snow sparkling in the foreground. I must get me some snow pictures!
This is beautiful!
Mary MacADNski: It's not hard around here.

WOW...that's some sight. We never get that in Ireland...we might on the occasional January get a couple of days of light snow but it usually disappears quickly. And amazingly can bring the country to a halt we're so unused to it.
Mary MacADNski: We had four storms that week and finally the sun came out!
Like it !! Very much snow here, now I understand how the help of your son is precious smile
Mary MacADNski: Precious and necessary with my injury. Normally I would do it all myself.
