I’m not sure if and when we will see more snow in Northern Virginia this winter, so I am posting a couple of shots as an homage to the departed snow.
As you can tell, I was looking up a lot when I walked through my neighborhood and captured somewhat similar images of the snow that had accumulated on a pine tree and an oak tree.

Really beautiful against that blue sky!
VERY pretty. Agree with nliakos – the oak leaves against that deep blue sky is quite striking!
Maybe you’re inviting snow to visit you more this winter.
Nice shots, Mike!
In your second shot, I see a snow fish swimming upstream from the tip of the branch…also, a perfect exposure under difficult conditions!
