It wasn't going to last till April was it? We always wake up from those special dreams, that we want to linger in so much longer. The significant snow was going to come sooner or later, and our later was yesterday. The first flurries started falling soon after 5AM in the still of darkness. This photograph was taken from our attic window, looking out towards the backyard. This is my winter tribute to Fairfield Porter's 'view from an upstairs window'.

How nice to sit near that window, i think !
ReplyDeleteHmmm... problems with your comment section, you might want to switch to a window (no pun intended.)
ReplyDeleteThis is such a beautiful sight that I would be happy to enjoy.
Wong is right. In fact, this image is now my desktop. Honolulu out the window, Portland out THIS one! Thanks-
ReplyDeleteAloha from Waikiki

Here, too, at last, a beautiful fall of snow. I went out walking in it twice, re-injuring both my knee and my ankle, and yet I still kept going.
ReplyDeleteNature is an artist, and its palate is very beautiful. Gorgeous scene.
ReplyDeleteLooks rather pretty. Looks even prettier when I know that I'm looking at a scene in Maine! Heh, heh.
ReplyDeleteRe your comment about my profile picture: I'm always in a fog. You knew that!
Love the frame of the frame here - a perfect vignette. Looks the same here in western NY. Tomorrow we head south, tho I love *seeing* the snow.
ReplyDeleteWe have snow here this morning also---but only about 2 inches. It's cold here also (18 degrees)... Schools are closed ---and we'll stay inside today ourselves... We have a nice big fire going in the fireplace this morning.
ReplyDeleteGlad I do feed my little birds though. They are flocking to the feeders... Poor little things!

ReplyDeleteOh I yearn to see a vision like this from my window Birdman...darn blue skies!!
ReplyDeleteHow beautiful, from inside out.
ReplyDeleteA lovely shot! We had rain all day yesterday and just a bit of wet messy snow this morning.
ReplyDeleteAt least I got a snow day outa it!!!!
ReplyDeleteTerrific view.
ReplyDeleteI tell you, it's been so cold here the last couple it might as well snow so we can have some fun.
Snow always looks good from the inside. It is when you have to go out in it . . .
ReplyDeleteGreat shot. My favorite way to photograph cold weather. lol
ReplyDeleteNice framing of the shot
ReplyDeleteReminds me of the scene outside my window. Except there are not as many trees.
ReplyDeleteNice view. Do you have a chair in the attic to read by that window?
ReplyDeleteI'm still hoping to see some significant snowfall here this winter... I just find snow beautiful, those falling flakes hypnotise me... In spite of all the mess it creates sometimes... :)
ReplyDeleteGod bless you!
