Winter Wonderland...Chicago Style

[legoalex2000]

finally, we had our first snow. oh not just the first snow of 2006, but this is a true chicago snow. about 8-11 inces right here, although i heard worse on the south side...

beautiful morning, so with my (found) trusty Nikon D70, i go out and snap a couple...

the bending over tree


my car - would never make it through this...


my mom's truck... which were about to use


and a path along the side.

Hehe...really glad that missed us last night.  We are just clear but a bit chilly

At least it doesnt look like you have an inch of ice under all that

Great shots, but were is the UAL 757 at?

Blimey....!
That's a lot of snow... ...!
Here in England we were forecast horrendous weather over the Winter....
...but so far it's been a bit chilly, now and again, but little or no snow... ...!
...and do you realise that today, Saturday, 21st. January, we are exactly one month from the shortest day! (21st. December).
The days are getting longer...
Spring is on it's way....Woo-Hoo... ...!

Paul... ...!

I have noticed that myself Mr Fozzer. On clear mornings the sky is actually brighter at 7:30.

Nice shots

Yes, we're over the hump now.... I don't mind the snow or the cold; it's the lack of daylight that bothers me sometimes.

had to ask, that was a joke right?

and there are only 4 pictures... which one were you talking about?

thnaks for the comments, the pictures would've looked MUCH better without the size limits, cause i had one picture has was saved on irfranview from this set, but it could only save at a max of 30% to stay under 100kb. it wasn't even worth posting.

oh well... my mom took much better pictures(sh'es the photographer, i just snap a couple when i can)

...it's what we in England refer to as "Extracting the urine"......!

Excellent Photo's, Ramos...

A pleasant change from endless photos of aeroplanes in snowy mountains incorporating motion blur and lens flare..... ...!
LOL...!

Cheers Ramos... ...!
