The Sun Broke Through
Posted by Slackwater - don (spokane, United States) on 31 January 2009 in Landscape & Rural.
A rural scene near Green Bluff, a fruit growing area near my home. We've had no more snowfall for weeks, but the 80 inches (2.03m) earlier remains well in place with freezing temperatures nightly.

Immensely spectacular, Don, a scene of utter beauty. The long shadow falling across the scene, the snow covered trees, and the stunning property, all create a scene which pleases my eyes. Full of elegance and charm. The big snow will hit us tonight and Sunday apparantely....Brrrrrr!

This truly is beautiful. Great clarity. So many interesting things for the viewer: that stretching shadow in the forefront, the shape and texture of the apple (or whatever type of fruit) trees, and those exquisite white homes. Winter eye candy (I named one of my photos this and it applies to this image as well).

I see I missed some lovely pictures whilst away Don. Not a lot of change in the weather though. Nor is there here, although we may have the novelty of snow soon instead of just the cold.

Mi piacciono molto questipaesaggi invernali la foto ha un'ottima inquadratura e dei colori bellissimi. Anche qui in Piemonre (regione del nord Italia) quest'anna ha nevicato molto quindi c'è la possibilità di fare molte foto con la neve

I like this very winter landscape picture frame and has a beautiful color. Even here in Piemonre (region of northern Italy) has snowed a lot this year and then there is the possibility to do many pictures with snow

A wonderful view with the hi-lights and sunshine, all that white makes a very pure picture.

Another really wonderful winter capture Don. I really should get up your way to see it first hand.
