34-365 Clothesline

34-365

It was a beautiful world in the Ozarks today as the ice began to melt. The sun came out and was glinting off of the melting ice. Freezing rain is scary and dangerous, but it is the most beautiful of all the winter precipitation. It is like diamonds have been sprinkled over everything. No picture can really capture the beauty.

Ice is dangerous, but it is so beautiful...

32-365 Storm of the Century

32-365

The "Storm of the Century" hit the Midwest today. In my little part of the Ozarks, we were mainly inundated with freezing rain. Thankfully, it switched over to sleet then snow before we had so much ice that it began to take down power lines. There's still always a chance that it could happen if the wind picks up too much, but for now, we have power.

Not the sharpest photo, but I liked the composition. I took this while it was still raining and couldn't get out of the house and I was trying to keep the back door open while keeping the camera out of the rain that was pelting into the house...so, I'm okay that it isn't tack-sharp.

Storm Clouds

It has been storming a lot over the last few weeks. I took this during a tornado warning we had while out at church camp last week. These photos are not touched up in Photoshop in anyway. Mother Nature can be both beautiful and frightening at the same time.
