Wanda03_20_05a.jpg

How ironic, on the first day of Spring it snowed here in Utah. Really snow isn't unusual at all in March, April and May here in Utah. By tomorrow the sun will come out, the snow will melt and it will feel like Spring again. Wanda wasn't thrilled at me taking her out in the yard to click a few snowy photos.

Here are a couple of more shots and

Canon EOS 20D ,Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8L USM
1/1600s f/3.5 at 67.0mm iso200 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

instead of taking her out in the snow ,you should take her to the sun in Mexico!

What I remember about this shoot was that I didn't exactly enjoy being dragged out of bed ( I was sleeping in that day) to go stand in the bitter-assed freezing wind and snow first thing in the morning! I hadn't even had My cup of coffee yet! But Bill wanted to get the shot before the snow went away. It's not unusual at all for the snow to fall hard and fast and then the sun to peek out and melt it all by late afternoon. That's typical springtime weather here in Utah.

So there I am, posing for the picture and I am thinking. . . ."yeah, I might be smiling but I am sure wishing I could pelt you AND your damned camera with this snowball I am holding." Can't you just hear Me saying that through My smile? (grin)

You got more than we did, and I hear there was a nasty wreck up SP canyon involving 3 semis in a head on. ouch.

And you can tell how thrilled she wasn't by the size of the snowball she's packing. John

Well done
