Freeze frame
A massive deep freeze blanketed the mountains over the weekend and although there were bone-chilling lows and a high number of auto accidents, the beauty of the ice-covered landscape balanced things out a bit.
Luckily I didn't have to travel far to find nature's frosty fine art. Here are a few shots from my backyard (note that I'm not a photographer and have yet to figure out Photoshop!):
Crazy to think that while I was out freezing my fingers and snapping these shots, Bubby was running around in nothing but his diaper -- at his home in the desert, of course, where the temperatures were in the 90s!

We had a flash-frozen cat-faced spider on our deck. It was pretty cool, albeit sad for the spider.
I'm glad that you can take what you get, weather-wise, and be happy with it; Bubby will be just as happy when he's freezing his little butt off, playing in the snow at Grandma's house.i
That *is* cool! I've never seen a cat-faced spider, and especially not a FROZEN cat-faced spider!
What an intrepid Indian! If you want to sit down with photoshop and learn the basics, I'm more than willing to help you out. I'm addicted to that program.
That would be wonderful! I bought a book for dummies but I think I'm too big of a dummy -- or the book is too big ... and too comprehensive. II only need to know the basics, not how to remove people from photos and replace them with celebrities!
WOW... all those pics are incredible!! The first one ~ simply amazing!
Cool pics! love the Indian in the snow one
That's my Indian in the Cupboard action figure! (honest!) I'm glad you like him!
