Patterns in the Snow (and Ice)

Yesterday afternoon Joan and I took a walk “down back” in “our” beaver-made wetland. The temperature was about 15 degrees F (up from a low of -12 the previous night) but there was no wind (a stark contrast from the day before). As long as we stayed in the sunny spots the walking was quite pleasant.

The sky was cloudless. The sun was low. There was a light coating of new and very dry snow. These conditions made all sorts of interesting patterns on the frozen ground stand out. I photographed them!

  1. Interesting! Untitled #3 and #9 could be titled, “Geometry 101”

    Several of those movement ones remind me of the wiper blades pushing off the snow.
