Autumn Snow


this is our third snowfall
each time 1/2 inch plus


autumn colors dressed in snow
with a dash of sunlight
so lovely


the golden forest trees are tamaracks (Western Larch)
they still have some of their needles on
stunning mixed with snow


light snow like this
reminds me of cotton fields

and so our autumn goes
sun and snow mingle 
sometimes rain graces our days

the wood stove is going

  5. Such a delicate powdering of early snow with autumn still lingering before it bids us adieu until next time! Such a pretty illuminated leaf surrounded by the settling snow.

  6. Bonjour,

    Brr...!! Malgré ces merveilleuses photos que tu nous montres il ne me tarde pas de voir arriver la première neige chez moi !...
    Je ne suis pas une adepte !...
    Le spectacle est toutefois fantastique.
    gros bisous

  10. Pure magic Tammie....thank you.
    It seems that Winter is already with you and Spring a distant memory.

    Stay warm!

  14. I agree the last shot looks like cotton. It must be wet.
    It would be so nice to be in front of a wood store right now.

    Look forward to your first ice sculptures of the season.
    Lovely pictures.

  16. Oh, Tammie - I love your photos of fall with winter approaching. My shots are all of winter now - and my fireplaces are also burning bright. I cross country skied today for the second time - it was great!

  19. Makes me want to cozy up with a cup of hot chocolate.
    That second photo is wonderful... what beautiful bokeh.

  20. That first image is SO dreamy Tammie! The clouds, the lake ... *sigh!* Yes, it would seem winter is taking hold and despite our complaints about winter ... it is beautiful (for the most part!)

  23. I love the scenes of the first snows as the green and the fall colors show through. Beautiful shots, Tammie. Fun to visit again and see that you are still up to your old tricks. OBTW, I've started posting on a limited basis again.

  27. For me, Whitefish is a town of the world's best. I think here you can live happy and out of the trouble that exist in the world. I have been there and seen that.

  32. Lovely photos. I like seeing the Montana beauty and each time I think of my brother in Lolo. They are moving to a new home still in Lolo but the new house backs up to a preserve.

  33. ...there is something about those first few snows! I can see the Winter Fairies waking up! :-)

  34. Your photos awe me and soothe my soul. It was from your photos that I decided that I wanted to learn about macro photography. It's been an incredibly rewarding journey.

    Your leaf in the snow is stunning. The landscapes with the lakes are spectacular.
