Description
Just my neighborhood in snow, a few years ago. A simple pic, but you can see the magic webwork that winter creates. And all those wrought-iron fences (a trademark of my neighborhood) along with the mix of high rises and small town houses. It's really very intimate when the trees are green.
But in winter, the area turns into a powdered sugar magic-land. I love walking here.
And see that church? On the left (that's a church back there)....Well, I played the organ in that church. I"m a trained pianist, but the organ is a little different, esp when you hit the pedals (when all the "stops" are out): Hit the lowest pedals and you head for the hills! Those pedals will rock your house to the ground. It's a feeling like no other.
Then exit the church and walk into this wonderland---it's the best. And the lake is maybe 4 blocks away...You've seen many shots of this area in full fall golds, and lush summer greens: I figured I should show the whites too...
Hope you're all having a peaceful and warm season. Have a fine wednesday! m
(ps---thank you for your very kind reception of my old illustrations (last upload)...you've all been very kind to my 'orphaned art' series; many thanks)

Nothing is prettier than right during and after a snowfall. Then a few hours pass and it begins to look tired. What a nice neighborhood. I know I would like Spring and Summer here.

You paint a companion picture via your words Mark...I like that one too...this is lovely in all its winter finery...I love to look at snowy images but do not like to go out in it...We have about 4" right now and brrrrr is it cold! I think you must freeze when you go to the lake when its like this...Would love to have heard you play the organ:) Btw I played violin briefly...

Don't get much snow where I live, so these kinds of scenes are always a treat.

oooooh! this looks frigid and icy but so welcoming, too. the brightness with all that details still visible is nice. the church, high rise, and small houses all in one scene is fascinating. the iron fencing is always a pretty detail thing in your photos, too. thanks for sharing your world with us. stay warm!
