100 feet away

 I planned to hike into some of the back country and take some winter photos of the waterfalls in the area but the snow changed my mind. I’m going to have to remember who has my snowshoes before I try hiking a couple miles in waist deep snow.

Black eyed Susans

But the urge to go out and take photographs wasn’t smothered by the snow. In a universe of infinite possibilities I figured I could find a couple interesting images within 100 feet from the house. So out I went and returned with these photos.

 Out in the garden I found some Black Eyed Susans.

In the side yard a wild Hawthorn

Sugar Maple

The sugar maple along the driveway that I don’t have the heart to turn into firewood. I figure it still has more life in it than I do.

 The drainage “stream” along the property line. The snow came early and deep. The ground never had a chance to freeze and water still flows under the snow cover.

    That Hawthorn is so pretty under the snow - great structure.
