My first time shooting the pier in snow! I'm finding that I like the pier in gray and white tones the best. Maybe it offsets all the clownish colors that it's made of? Who the hell decided to paint the pier like that?
A small creek winds through the snow near the ponds of the Genesee Recreation Area, part of the Genesee County Parks in Michigan.
Something a bit different - possibly even abstract. We had about 15-20cm of snow over night so headed down to the sea to get some "epic" sunset shots. Alas that never happened. Instead I used the last of the day's light to take some shots of snow covered boulders. Hard to tell by this shot but the boulder in the middle of the shot is probably slightly larger than a normal adult-sized head.
Over the weekend, a slow-moving Pacific storm containing a lot of moisture combined with a low-pressure system dumped 2-4ft of heavy wet snow up in the Colorado high country. Seen here, Amtrak's westbound California Zephyr races west making up some time just east of Tolland, Colorado along South Boulder Creek on April 18, 2016.
Snow buntings are large buntings, with striking 'snowy' plumages. Males in summer have all white heads and underparts contrasting with a black mantle and wing tips. Females are a more mottled above. In autumn and winter birds develop a sandy/buff wash to their plumage and males have more mottled upperparts.
Globally, they breed around the arctic from Scandinavia to Alaska, Canada and Greenland and migrate south in winter. They are a scarce breeding species in the UK, in Scotland, making them an Amber List species. They are more widespread in winter in the north and east when residents are joined by continental birds.
They are listed under Schedule 1 of the Wildlife & Countryside Act.
What they eat:Seeds and insects (Courtesy RSPB).

Went for a walk after the first decent snowfall of the winter ... out pops the sun!

I was parked with window open and looking through my lens to scope the waterfowl on a flooded field when these two suddenly flew to the nearest fence post in front of me. They stayed just long enough.
The background is water being moved by a brisk wind.
Beaver County, Alberta.
It was snowing so must that the photo seems Black & White ... Anthony Lakes, Oregon

A perfect scenario. 90k snow geese, a clear sky and a beautiful moon. Now all I needed was for the geese to fly in front of the moon. Seems like they were happy to oblige.
