Day 27: January 27th

It's not that I want to take the easy way out and just shoot the obvious or the easily available subjects.  It's just that I find this sight astounding.  No matter how many years I live, snow will continue to amaze me.  It simplifies the landscape until you realize that it was very complicated in the first place.  Really - all those leaves and individual blades of grass and twigs and branches - it's chaos out there!  And then comes a snow.  And when that snow comes, it is one sheet of white with a single texture.  Wow.

Also, one cannot ignore the fact that I woke to this big cake of a thing on my deck.  It amuses me to no end.
