10/27/05 - First Snow

The first snow of the season. At home, 50 miles away, the temperature was mid-50's and here off Skyline Drive it was just above freezing. The leaves are just beginning to turn and the combination of snow, autumn foliage and the blue sky was special. More from today - including a big black bear putting on the last layers of fat before hibernation - http://www.pbase.com/ed_k/first_snow_2005
This shot was taken on Old Rag fire road - almost directly opposite from where this shot was taken almost two weeks ago http://www.pbase.com/ed_k/image/50771094

Nikon D70
1/40s f/16.0 at 18.0mm full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

Snow like this makes for pretty scenery...
it's later when the real stuff begins.

Just wonderful. Love those leaves in the snow and the wheel tracks. I like that the snow has warm tones in the white. This would make a fine oil painting.
