About 18 inches of snow fell on this area of the Fraser River delta last week. It is raining again, as is usual for December, so the photos soon will be the only reminder left, apart from huge mountains of grungy scrapings in the mall parking lots.

First; an overview from our balcony. Early morning, before the sun appeared. |

Looking towards the west. |
|
Snow on a shrub, making faces and beasties. |
|
Blue skies with the sunrise. Odd how the colour mix changes, so that the same trees now look darker. |
|
And finally, in my garden, a visiting elf, in a 1940s coat and hat. (No, there is nobody there usually, nor is it a walkway; just a space between two trees.) Proof that --- well, proof of something, anyway! |
these are beautiful! thanks for sharing!!
ReplyDeleteGlad you enjoyed them, Anonymous.
ReplyDeleteThat really is quite a lot of snow for your region. It looks wonderful but must be weighing quite heavily on the branches of the larger trees.
ReplyDeleteBev;
ReplyDeleteYes, it was beautiful, but it broke down quite a few of the deciduous trees in the neighbourhood. Add to that, the windstorm shortly after, and it adds up to thousands of good trees down. (They say 3000 in Stanley Park alone.)
