Snow Photographs

The first snows of the Winter are quite exciting, especially when the snow sticks and stays on everything for days.

Opportunity to show the delicacy of Nature abound.

First Snow

The first snow arrived the other day.

Autumn wasn’t finished yet.

So, it shone through, and the snow went away.

But it will be back.

New Snow On Moffat’s Path

A trail near my house which I have named Moffat’s Path after the owner of the land, looks good all year round.

After a fresh snowfall it looks spectacular.

Delicate Winter

Icing sugar on trees, branches and objects make Winter the most delicate season of all.

Arrival

The seasonal changeover has happened and Winter has arrived.

The lake froze over a couple of days ago and we have seen some snow.

More snow to come, no doubt!

Spring From Roy’s Rock

The North shore of Lake Nipissing in late March.

Saint Joseph’s Motherhouse in the background.

Another two or three weeks may see the Lake ice-free.

Late winter snow and shadows.

Undulations

Late in Winter the snow that has fallen covers objects on the ground in a way that creates a very sensual surface.

Long shadows late in the day contribute to the effect.

The Trails Behind My House

The area behind my house is mostly rock and undeveloped bush. At a time long in the past we would have been situated on an island, but when the glaciers melted and the lake drained, the island ended up connected with the mainland by a low-lying piece of land. A twenty foot rise in water level would put us back on an island again.

In “recent” years, recreational walking trails have developed and lately a map and signs have appeared. Winter, and the advent of “snowshoeing” as a recreational activity have made walking these trails a fun thing to do. They become packed hard enough that snowshoes are not required much of the time. If one wishes to set off through the bush off the trail, then snowshoes are a necessity but a pleasant trek through the bush can be had without them. The absence of leaves makes it possible to see some of the features of the area.

Opportunities for photographs are numerous.

Sharing the experience of the trails is particularly special.

Sunny Day Birches

I love the shape and colour of a birch tree and a birch grove.

Particularly when the sun shines on them.

Edge Of The Bush

On the edge of the bush the snowflakes pile up on the ground.

Deeper inside a canopy of snow is created.

Follow The Trail

A recent day of snow produced a magical world in the bush.

Delicate Snowstorm

No wind.

Just large snowflakes in profusion.

The leaves of last Summer will remain until Spring.

To be replaced by new life.

Winter On Four Mile Bay

When Trout Lake freezes, the ice becomes a highway for recreational vehicles.

The tracks they leave differ from the tracks of summer.
