Shadow Shot Sunday - Snowy sunset and shadow

I was returning home yesterday afternoon and upon pulling into my parking place in the driveway and saw a near sunset view and having only my cheap droid phone (check the odd curvature of the house), snapped this from the driver's seat. The glow of the sky allows for a post for Shadow Shot Sunday 2. A soft pastel glow illumines the cascading ice and creates a soft shadow Cold but quite attractive...

Tina's Pic Story - Sun

A burst of sun settles over the Uplands of Ansonia Connecticut 

Tina's Pic Story is the fun weekly meme hosted by her - we post the pics to match the theme she provides, which this week is the sonne/sun. This is the sun rising over the neighborhood after an icy night before. The solar heat is melting the ice from the leafless shrubs and trees...promising a nice winter day. Ice may be a nuisance, but it can look really nice...

Tina's Pic Story - Icy

Tina offers us the always fun weekly photo meme Pic Story. Happily I am back this week, and have for my submittal for the letter 'I' which for me is Icy. The day in question is 27 January 2011, the morning after the forth snowstorm of 15 in (38 cm) since the preceding Christmas from each of those storms. In southern Connecticut, that is way too much snow in a four week period...but plenty of icy conditions for this month's letter challenge! 

Although I prefer spring, summer and autumn to that winter...
