Winter Scene
March 24th, 2008I’m still upset by the length of this winter, however cold and beautiful. Fortunately, it appears to have lifted. A bit. o

Seriously stunning. I can just hear the trees crying under the weight of all that ice and snow. Or is that you?
Gorgeous! As miserable and long as this winter has been, this photo has reminded me that winter has a lot of beauty. Thanks for sharing.
Beautiful shot. Nice warm and cool tones.
I agree with the others; this is incredibly beautiful.
Beautiful picture, Jon. Your winter seems to be coming to an end more quickly than mine…alas, I live in Maine. Mother Nature has given us quite a kick in the butt this year. Given the way we treat her, I can’t say we don’t deserve it.
Holy Jeez. Amazing. Looks like an alien planet to me.
Gorgeous photo, Jon!
The mountains look like you can reach right out and touch them. Winter has been quite the bitch this year… glad that the calendar says spring even if I am having a hard time believing it. Somehow seeing it on paper makes it seem more like a possibility.
That would be nice to visit! Beautiful picture. Winter is the reason I moved from Kansas City to Austin. I feel for ya’ll.
It’s supposed to snow later this week. Wah.
Jon – your pictures are amazing!
Gorgeous. We’re supposed to hit fifty today. Not nearly warm enough to melt the six feet of snow still in my yard but it’s a start.
snap dang that is a gorgeous picture. it actually looks seriously inviting as it nears 90 degrees here in los angeles today. i know… the grass is always greener.
Would like one time to have a winter wonderland like this in my back yard for just a short time. When it snows here in my part of NC people go crazy..
There’s something magical about how ice frost coats the branches of a sleeping-in-winter tree. There’s something magical about how you’ve captured that here.
It’s interesting to hear you and dooce say it’s the longest colder winter, because the front page of the paper today here was “Longest Hottest Summer since 1998″. Something about butterfly’s wings
I hope you don’t mind that I am using that picture as my windows wallpaper–it reminds just how much I don’t miss the snow after years in Utah–although living in Las Vegas has lots of negatives too.
Actually, Portland, Maine is getting into the dirty-melting-snowbank and windy-day sidewalk-sand-in-the-teeth stage of mud season.
Fortunately, I planted a lot of crocus in the back yard last year, so I’m concentrating on them, and beautiful photos of winter like this one.
Won’t be long and I’ll be looking back at shots like these to forget about the heat. We’ve already had some days over 80 degrees and it’s way to early for that.
Looks pretty awesome – I’d kill for that now! Trade you living in Melbourne?
Sounds like extremes at both ends of the planet. Here in Adelaide we just set the Australian capital city record of something like 16 straight days over 35+ degrees celsius. It rained yesterday for the first time in 60+ days.
Send some snow thisaway please!
THANKS, I grew up in SLC and this pic capture the mountains wonderfully. It makes me miss it something awful. Well, I miss the skiing but not the icy driving!
wow. stunning!
