White Easter

The following pictures were created from photos I took in the early morning hours after a recent spring snow storm. I snapped them while the blue cast of new light on snow still lingered in the air and drew me to my windows. Welcome to April in the mountains.







The snow has fallen from the trees but the cold lingers and the ground remains white. Warm days elude us and the sun continues to hide behind stubborn clouds. But as my family gathers for our Easter celebration we will revel in the warmth of love, ever thankful for one another.
Happy Easter to those who celebrate, peace and love to all.

Beautiful, Pam. How did you get the crow in the last picture? A perfect jot of interest. Happy Easter. Though it may be chilly outside - you'll be basking in the warmth of family.

Beautiful pictures! Can't believe it's snowing in April ~ but from all I've heard, that seems to be a quirk of the season. :)


Peace,

Ah... that crow must have tasted just delish for dinner that evening.

Lovely pictures, Pam. My daughter & husband live in upstate NY and have been deluged with cold and snow too. However, here in North Carolina, we had a real warm March & early April. Then a freeze came upon us and I heard today that the peach and apple farmers in our county have lost most of their crops. Isn't that sad? They say it is the worse that it's been for 50 years.

I missed coming over here to your blog on Easter day, Pam, but I'm here now and really enjoying these beautiful blue paintings you've made from your photos. I'm no stranger to April snow. March and April are such fickle months in the Rockies! Must be where you are too.
