White Hole

Holyoke MA

I took this shot of melted and refrozen snow on a small patch of remaining snow outside my kitchen window this morning. I wanted to catch the pinpoint reflections of the sparkling sun, and since the patch itself didn't have much photographic interest I quickly focused on shooting only the snow, especially around the mysterious sunken hole in the center. The hole and the sparkling ice nodes remind me of pictures of some of the distant nebula photographed from space.

In stead of a black hole spanning millions of light years, we get a white hole spanning perhaps two feet. But a pretty one at that. At least in my opinion.
