Snow Shadows and A Napping Dog



I still haven't taken my camera outside to do any serious snow photography. These were taken from inside the house. Webster sneaked back to bed this morning after his walk for a nap in my unmade bed. I had to leave the house before he was ready to get up so it's still a rumpled mess.

I had to wait in line forever to get my drivers license renewed today at Motor Vehicles. They said it was the busiest day of the year. I wasn't aware that they had closed the satellite office in Morristown until I went there yesterday and found all the windows covered with brown paper. At that point it was too late to drive to the main branch 30 minutes away. Oh well, I got in some good people watching today. The fashion police would have had a field day.

Ross Castle Reflected in Pond Killarney, Ireland

So beautiful. So serene. So Green. Why does a sky reflected in a pond look more beautiful than the actual sky? ~

Love the Symmetry in this English Manor House

I have no information regarding this fabulous Manor House. I'm assuming it's in England but it could be elsewhere. Don't you love the symmetry of the main building? Architecture at its best. *

Big Icicles and Big Ants

The meltdown has begun. These icicles were photographed outside my bathroom window this morning.
