Shimmering ribbons

Snow and sunlight can be almost hypnotic, if you let your eyes follow a curve from left to right… right to left… left to right….

I call this one undulating.

I took all pictures with Dee-Dee the Saturday after Thanksgiving, in the afternoon, as the snow was melting on our deck.

    You are getting sleepy… your eyelids are just so heavy you can hardly keep them open… but you will keep them open just enough to read my words and hear my voice…

    … and you will visit my blog regularly… and leave long, detailed comments…. you will share stories of how your life relates…

    … and now… when you see Two smiley faces in a row… you will wake up… feeling ever so refreshed…. like you’ve had just had 8 hours of uninterrupted sleep…

    ready now…

    Danielle, I think Amber’s still asleep. Those are really cool pictures. I’m glad to see you’re really settiling in and enjoying your new home. I can tell because you’re taking pictures. :-)

    Thanks, Jenski!

    Squirl, thank you. And you are right. I feel like everyday there is something to photograph, even if it is ‘just around the house’.

    And you know, you might be right about Amber.

    Amber! AMBER! :-) :-)

    AMBER! :-D :-D

    :-p :-p Amber!

    Huh? What?

    uh.

    I’m awake, I’m awake. Quack.

    Err…

    I think that last smiley was what did it, honestly.

    Squirl, thanks for saving me. I feel entirely rested now. ;)

    Very cool effect – both the wind-shaped snow waves and the light bouncing across them. :)

    Wow Danielle. That’s really beautiful. We’re still snow-free on the Cape, but it’s really cold today. I think we might get a little white stuff tonight.

    Hmmmm. How can I get it to snow only on my lawn and not on the road or my car ;-)

    back to work…
