The weather here is extremely changeable, it can be absolutely frigid one day and gorgeous the next, and this weekend was a great example of that. Friday night we had a freezing fog all night, so I took these photos of the results once the sun came up Saturday morning.
By Sunday afternoon it was warm enough to take the dog for a walk in nothing more than jeans and a light sweatshirt. That's the nice thing about Colorado winters, despite the intermittent snow and cold, it's usually sunny and sometimes pleasantly warm. Because of our altitude, the sun has real warmth even in the depths of winter.

Gorgeous captures, Al, as always! I love being able to see each individual snowflake! Exquisite! Glad you and Socks got to go for a good walk! Enjoy the week, my friend, and have a very Merry Christmas!

Snow in sunshine is so much more alive than snow in darkness. Your photos are so enticing - I want to wipe the snow off of some of the leaves so that the limbs don't break!
