Winter Gusts

Posted on December 28, 2021January 30, 2025

The trees around my house are slouched over, laden with snow and ice. Their boughs and branches are stooped, tips to the ground, admitting a kind of defeat to winter’s relentless snowfalls.

Today breezes have been blowing wisps – or sometimes, torrents – of snow into the air, and it’s quite a sight to behold. Armed with my camera this morning, I braved the outdoors to capture some of the magic in my lens.

The dark branches of this tree paired with the snow on its boughs makes for a nice contrast between the tree and the blue sky. Copyright Hazel Peel-Hodgson, 2021

    I believe you captured the image of an angel in the sixth photo down! I first saw what appeared to be a wing, then after staring at the image for a while. an angel appeared. In the eighth photo down you could label it “The Snowy Way” or “The Creamy Way”.
