Big section of tree down

A doorbell cam video captured this branch crashing into the street yesterday. The homeowner was in his front yard when suddenly there was a big noise and a cloud of snow -- the branch landed near an ambulance, whose siren gave a short beep. Sahraa and I always pass by here when we’re out for a walk. There's another fallen branch in the right lane, about halfway down the block.

Best to view in "Original" because other versions resized by PBase are decidedly
unsharp.

A pretty scene. Sad about the tree.

A great winter light in the trees and on the facades.

that street looks dangerous for a walk...V

Gave the ambulance a fright :) Hopefully no one was hurt. I guess you get that wet heavy snow. Looks so pretty against the blue sky. V

Excitement on a quiet snowy day. Lucky no one was hurt!

the snow makes the trees so attractive, yet clearly there are dangers too...cool you caught some sunlight just along the street..

That is scary! I’m glad you weren’t walking by. This photo is gorgeous. Love the light on the branches over the road. V

A beautiful after a wintry-storm street scene Helen.

This is such a beautiful winter's scene, despite the fallen branch. I'm glad you and Sahraa were not walking there when it came down. V

I saw D.C. and Virginia on the new. You finally got your snow... all at once. :) V

Interesting photo. Heavy snow can do a lot of damage. Stay safe on those icy streets.
