Just thought I would give you the whole photo from which the header photo was taken. It is one of all time favorite photos. I am not sure if it is such a wonderful shot, so much as it holds so many memories for me. It is scanned from a print, taken in the winter of 1978-79. I do not remember the exact date, but am almost positive it was the snow that took out our power for 3 days. I think I have used it as my header photo on one of my blogs each winter since I began blogging.

The whole photo
Just thought I would give you the whole photo from which the header photo was taken. It is one of all time favorite photos. I am not sure if it is such a wonderful shot, so much as it holds so many memories for me. It is scanned from a print, taken in the winter of 1978-79.

It's a wonderful shot, and even more impressive that it was scanned from a print. Often those don't come through so well when you put them on your computer screen.
ReplyDeleteIt is totally wonderful. And it looks like you snapped it, I never would have guessed it's a print.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely stunning, Rose! If it's not already, you should have it framed and displayed in a prominent place in your home.
ReplyDeleteIt truly is beautiful. What a great scene.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great shot and even more so asit have a memory for you. It could be a picture from a postcard.
ReplyDeleteI am loving it.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful Rose, thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeletethanks for showing us the rest of it, it truly is so very beautiful. and it is really good from a scan, could not even tell.
ReplyDeleteit is just gorgeous!!! needs to be framed on your wall. can get lost in it.
ReplyDeleteThat is picture postcard perfection and sure does make a wonderful header.
ReplyDeleteIt's a fine winter scene and excellent composition. At to that is its significance as a reminder of huge snows and times in the past. Very nice picture and post!
ReplyDeleteThe winter of 1978-79 was very rough in the US Midwest. We had the worst blizzards and cold weather that we had ever had before. We had snow emergencies and weren't permitted to drive for several days because it was too cold and the ice was too deep to get the highway maintenance machinery on the streets. Your image is a much nicer memory of that year!
ReplyDeleteSuch a beautiful picture. Cold!
ReplyDeleteIt is a classically good shot, I like it a lot!
ReplyDeleteI think it's absolutely wonderful!
ReplyDeleteThis is a great winter scene. I can understand why you like it, and I'm glad you've used it more than once.
ReplyDeleteOne of my favorite all time photos.
