We very seldom get snow here in December. For some reason though we got some today. Thank you Lord!

Chris, The redwoods look good in snow! I might try to tone down the one large flake top and center. Nice idea w/ the vertical,almost looks like a vertical pano.

Chris, real snow! I agree with Denise about the one large bright flake at the top. I like the vertical.
