Snow!

Over the last couple days hurricane Lilly has traded in her usual mud puddle forays for the frosty funness of snow.  Its been her first real chance to play in the white stuff and its quickly becoming her favorite thing ever.

Having a bit of circle running fun.

More general circle running

This was during our snow angel lesson.  She didn’t quite grasp a few of the concepts and ended up flapping around like a bird stuck on its back.

After the kiddies were in bed I wondered around the neighborhood with my tripod looking for something to shoot (which will, by the way, get you stared at by the neighbors).

This was from our front door.

This was my first try at shooting a little pond by our place.  It was a 25 second exposure and a big gust of wind kicked up a big cloud of snow about 15 seconds in.  The ghost image is the last few seconds of the exposure taken after I swiveled the camera away from the snow.

A shot of the street.

One last street shot.  At this point I was a bit numb so I packed it in for the evening.
