Winter Wonderland

We had a lovely Christmas. A green one, but lovely nonetheless. Our snow came two days late, full of thick, fluffy wonder that only arrives with that first heavy snow of the season. It clung to everything, and transformed the sodden, brown land into a thick white frosting.

I wanted to capture it, so I asked my cousin-slash-best-friend, Kris, to help me out. It's a lot easier to practice exposure and manual focus on a twentysomething woman than a three-year-old boy. Doesn't hurt that she's gorgeous, extremely photogenic, and willing to traipse through foot-deep snow for me. She even hopped on Charlie's GT racer and hit the hill for a round or two.

A snow angel indeed.
