J'adore le choc neige & bois ici, et les couleurs me font penser... à un gros gâteau au café saupoudré de sucre glace - à table ! ;-)

Scotfot from Kabul, Afghanistan
Ah... looks like the season for snowy pictures... it looks familiar! Our snow is the same and daylight is down to 7h 14m over here!
5 Dec 2008 11:09am
@Scotfot: Really, oh there will so much more snow, here our daylight ends at 5h00 ;) and we're heading into the MINUS 15 or so...Gosh I hope it doesn't get too cold over there!

Paco Díaz from Palma de Mallorca, Spain
Good one, Lorraine. The powder of the snow on the wall is very effective here. And all this snow on the trees and herbs.... I'm in Canada today looking for my own snowy photos :))

JoeB from Brampton, Canada
Lovely, scary photo I'm starting to feel sorry for your weather, I'll put a rush on the gift certificate hopefully you'll be able to use by spring :{} Haven't heard a peep from your law firm, I guess there closed and are fighting for beach chairs in sunny Florida.
5 Dec 2008 12:16pm
@JoeB: Yeah, the buggers all flew the coops like a bunch of little wusses ;) Now I have to be on my best behaviour...sigh ;) thanks so much !
Roman from Thunder Bay, Canada
It looks like you guys in southern Ontario (for us up here you are all in southern Ontario, haha...) are stealing our snow, because we have barely any. If only we could swap our cold with, let's say, Florida or Texas, that'd be pretty cool
cheers
Roman

António Pires from Lisbon, Portugal
With so much white, the walls of the house get noticed.
5 Dec 2008 2:21pm
@António Pires: Well I noticed it lol thanks a lot Antonio ;)
Barbara from Florida, United States
WOW! and again Wow, it looks like a blizzard arrived catching everything in it's path. Incredible how it accumulated on this fence and shrubs.
Great capture and reminder of how powerful winter can be. I love the tones of the snow and gold color from the structure.
5 Dec 2008 2:45pm
@Barbara: Thanks so much Barb, it was one of those really sticky snow lol
Observing from West Cheshire, United Kingdom
Wicked snow scene, let's hope it stays for Christmas, even right through until May. lol

Michael Rawluk from Williams Lake, BC, Canada
It is a big white monster climbing over the fence.

tyan from Singapore, Singapore

5 Dec 2008 4:05pm
@tyan: LOl the house is just fine sweetie ;)
@Alun Lambert: Thanks a lot Alun :)
Marion from Nanaimo, BC, Canada
I love it when the snow sticks to the side of the building. A lovely snowy scene Lorraine. Poor trees need to be shaken so they don't break but that would ruin the prettiness of the scene. What to do, what to do!!
5 Dec 2008 5:17pm
@Marion: No fear Sweet Marion, the gentle wind does that ;) lol thantks a lot ;)
jamesy from christchurch, New Zealand
Just so beautiful I can say that sitting here with the temperatures in the mid to late 20 C
5 Dec 2008 6:21pm
@jamesy: REally ? it's okay I kinda like snow, :) thanks alot ;)
Pixim from Nice, France
J'adore ces amoncellements de neige, on dirait des décorations d'arbres avec du coton. L'envie me prend aussi d'y passer pour la faire tomber et paraitre ainsi le "Maître du temps" Bon okay c'est infantile mais cela fait du bien. Peut-être au niveau photographique surexposé légèrement pour récupérer du blanc, mais cela dépend de l'ambiance voulue ;)
5 Dec 2008 6:32pm
@Pixim: Lol on sent tous enfants devant une neige enrichissante ;)
MontereyJohn from Salinas, California, United States

5 Dec 2008 6:41pm

@nimazn: Thanks for the nice comment and visit Nimazn :)
@Ana Lúcia: Thanks a lot Ana Lu ;)
bluechameleon from Vancouver, Canada
Lorraine...would you like to trade Provinces for a week?
I just love the snow and visiting your blog satisfies all my snow needs...it's the next best thing to being there. I love this!
5 Dec 2008 9:20pm

akarui from Kagoshima, Japan
Belle photo de neige fraiche. Cela donne envie de faire du ski de randonnee ou voire une promenade en raquette dans la poudreuse...
6 Dec 2008 12:06am

JJ from Jersey City, United States
WOW this is so beautiful, and yet so cold, I am still quietly hoping I wont get many opportunities for snow shots this winter, LOL
6 Dec 2008 12:49am
@JJ: I bet Barbahra would love the snow, you can take her out, but first you must find a little ski jacket, tuque, mittens, and boots for her ;)
@Betsy Barron: Thanks Betsy, it gets sooo much worse ;)
Linerberry from Sumner, Christchurch, New Zealand

6 Dec 2008 6:32am

Calusarus from St Sorlin en Valloire, France
le vent doit être terrible pour arriver à un tel résultat. Impressionnant.
6 Dec 2008 3:26pm
@Calusarus: En effet, c'était tout un vent, merci beaucoup Frederic :)
Bookfool from Vicksburg, United States
Beautiful!!! Someday it's going to sink in, but it just astounds me how much snow you live with.
6 Dec 2008 6:53pm
@Bookfool: Oh Book Baby, you ain't see nothing yet ;) lol thanks so much!
Ross Collins from Wellington, New Zealand
All the snow is providing good opportunities for you. You really cashed in with this one!

Cheryl from Texas, United States
I love this winter scene with the gold colour in the building. Do you loose power from the heavy snow? We did all the time and from ice when I lived in Michigan
