Snow Puddles and Sky #SkywatchFriday

March has arrived in New York State and, as advertised, it has come in like a lion.

It's so unpleasant most days I don't want to be outside for long, so my photography has been limited.  Instead I want to treat you to some views of late February.

The sky is somewhat changeable.

A snow squall on Sunday. These blow up quickly and can reduce visibility to near zero.  You don't want to be out driving when one of these hit.


In this one you can see a small (between the two objects in the bottom middle) snow plume coming from the ground.

From February 24, two puddles reflect the sky.

Another view.

A blend of feathery clouds and a contrail.

Finally, this isn't quite big sky country but tell that to these clouds.

Spring is definitely coming.  I see sap starting to rise, as indicated by reddish upper branches.  In my yard I see the buds swelling on high up tree branches.

Spring can't come soon enough.

  4. I'm so glad when March arrives. Here in northern Canada, it doesn't necessarily mean spring, but it gives us hope!
    Lovely pictures, Alana. Your photography always fills me with peace!

  8. Having grown up in northwestern Pennsylvania, I know just what you're talking about with your puddles and snow squalls. Spring will be beautiful.

  9. Beautiful photography, Alana. You have a good eye! Spring has arrived here by Nashville, which also means allergy season. *sigh*
