More December Snow

I don't mind a joke but this is ridiculous. From my window this morning, there is a road out there somewhere. We had 18 inches of snow last-night on top of the two feet we had the day before. For the first time I can remember the main Island Highway was closed because of whiteout conditions. Might be hamburgers for Christmas dinner.....once again digging out...

Jess, what a beautifull winter picture. You got quite some snow there. Is that amount of snow unusual for Vancouver Island ? The colors are amazing. Very well done. Hope you don't mind the hamburgers :-) V

Oh my goodness Jess, that's a LOT of snow!
You sure got a beautiful picture of it though. The dark blues in the sky back there add
a lot too. Beautiful. CB

wonderful purity
Guest 19-Dec-2008 04:27
As frustrating as it must be to be home bound, this really is quite lovely. Time for a fire, hot cocoa and a good book.
Guest 19-Dec-2008 03:47
What a stunning scene, Jess. This will be on a card someday. Well done. V

Beatuiful!
We had weather like that in Denver two years ago.
Cindi Smith19-Dec-2008 01:22
Global Warming???? I think not! Beautiful scenery but as long as you have something to eat and can stay warm, just enjoy the scene! This is so beautiful!
lou_rozensteins19-Dec-2008 01:21
Lovely and unearthly shot. Well done.
We are having 37degrees C here today! It's hard for me to think about snow!!
Marianne Venegoni19-Dec-2008 01:11
I can understand getting tired of to much snow but you have to admit, this is gorgeous! Excellent photography Jess!

Fred Conte 18-Dec-2008 22:15
What a beautiful scene! Well done Jess... Reminds me of times I've spent in Maine.
Joe Lasker18-Dec-2008 21:59
Oh, it's so nice to see snow when it isn't in my front yard. :)

That's a beautiful scene, well worth burgers for Christmas, no? Snuggle up by the fire and do out till Spring thaw.
Martin Schiff18-Dec-2008 21:42
This is an amazing image!
Sonny18-Dec-2008 21:15
Beautiful image! Love the blue, blue sky contrasting with the white snow. Here in SC, all we have is rain. I miss the snow. *sigh*
Hank Vander Velde18-Dec-2008 21:05
What a perfect and serene image Jess. If only we wouldn't have to shovel it. We are supposed to be getting about 16 inches too this weekend on top of what we already have. Just keep looking out the window.
Guest 18-Dec-2008 20:59
I've looked hard but can't spot the reindeer or the sleigh...wonderful to look at and photograph but travelling conditions must be a nightmare....
Tom Munson18-Dec-2008 20:56
What a gorgeous image, Jess. Great shot. We are also getting hammered. We have had 20 inches in the last 24 hours and it's still snowing. All I've done is shovel.
Simon Chandler18-Dec-2008 20:54
What a beautiful image! A true winter wonderland. Love the composition and lighting. v
John Reynolds LRPS18-Dec-2008 20:39
Looks beautiful though. Worth having hamburgers for Christmas!
Best wisehs,
John
Max Oelschlaeger 18-Dec-2008 20:23
Hi Jess, send some of that snow down to NM.... Our ski slopes are desperate for more. I can see that you have more than enough. VVN image -- seems HDR like in the gorgeous color and tonal range.
Guest 18-Dec-2008 20:20
Beautiful...Hope your fridge is packed..
Michael Shpuntov18-Dec-2008 20:01
We've should get it on weekend. Great blue hues in the image. Vote.

Beautiful snow scene.
Gayle P. Clement18-Dec-2008 19:30
Awesome, really breathtaking image, Jess. I love the quality of the light. It does seem like rather deep snow for your area.
