@Xibee — Nope, it’s a bus shelter. I think it’s best to have a nice fluctuation in seasons; it creates a nice balance. Once you’ve had enough of one, another one comes along.

@maeko — That’s the only type of snow that isn’t satisfying.

Aw. The snow in Detroit has totally melted away. Left are only piles of dirty, poo-coloured, old snow.

Oooooh! Holy crap is that a phone booth?! I’ve been away from the work and the soggy aspects of it so long that it still looks wonderful to me…. there’s something too wonderful about seeing the mundane transformed.

Although I well remember slogging through slush in Illinois and being SURE I didn’t want to keep living with it.

West is Best until Christmas, and then you feel like a deflated balloon.

@Pearl — The pom-pom tree branches were very difficult to compose. I took a whole bunch of shots, but they’re either too close or too far. This one came out alright though, I’m glad you like it.

@Sophia — Yep…every place has it’s advantages and disadvantages. Personally, I’d rather have the snow.

@Arden — You can be a good photographer with a bad camera. It’s not the tool, but the person behind it who can make a good picture.

@amy — It’s a BEA-UTIFUL sight. I may get sick of it by April, but for now I’m sucking it in. I guess this means I won’t ever be moving West!

@Uncle Joe — I really enjoy that analogy, I wonder which culture it originates from. Even heavy snow will give a romantic feeling (the heavier the better, I think), but the consequence is having to deal with it.

Some people say your spouse is like snow — beautiful to look at from a distance, but soggy and messy up close. Moderate snow gives a romantic feeling though.

On the west coast, winter is continual drizzles and the sun sort of hybernates. In the mid-east, there’re both snowy days and sunny days.

all I can say is; WEST is BEST
I knew there was a reason to live west-coast style….
aside from a bit-o-rain…I don’t spend any time shoveling or trudging thru that white stuff
ugly sight…especially in MARCH

no thank you…I lived a year in ottawa…THAT was enough…ONE winter there…..no more

I love photography, but i my camera suck. oh yeah, i heard about the frustration with shovelling snow from my relatives in america. that’s why they moved to a more sunny state. cant remember what state it was though.

Yeesh… so glad I don’t live in the snow :p I guess the time I save shoveling I spend commuting.

yes, condos show their advantage this time of year. I just look out at those home owners shoveling… good choice this condo thing.

Like the pom-pom tree branches.
