Happy Valentines Day!

This pair of trees grabbed my attention right away with their white skin exposed echoing the white snow below and the beautiful blue sky with a hint of the rising moon between them. We haven't seen much blue sky lately in the midst of our midwest winter. 

Snowpocalypse

Mother nature dished up quite the storm last night...high winds and 13 inches of fine snow over about eight hours. Today the wind calmed and the sun came out for a while ;)

Trees | Photo Friday

The Photo Friday challenge this week is "Trees". These maples were audibly releasing their leaves one beautiful foggy autumn morning in the Mines of Spain, Dubuque, Ia.
