Old Snow Winter Trees

Posted by Marc on September 11, 2007

 Along the Blackwater River in the Canaan Valley National Wildlife Refuge, there is this trail that meanders among the riverside trees and boulders. In the winter, this trail is perfect for snowshoeing and cross-country skiing. On this warm, winter day, the sun was settling low in the sky melting intricate patterns into the snow and casting long shadows with the tree-trunks. The texture of the bark on the trees and the snow on the ground gave this image a warmth and accesibility that is unexpected for a cold snowy scene. You can almost instinctively sense how easily the snow would ball-up for making snowballs or a snowman.    Image Size:
