April 16, 2014 Snowstorm in Newtown, CT

Daffodils in Snow

This morning I woke to an inch of sleet and snow on the ground.  The thermometer read 27 degrees and the wind was whipping.  Naturally, the first thing I did was grab my camera and run outside.

Snow brings out the best in plants.  It adds interest, creates contrast, and reminds every one of the winter holidays.  Below are some photos I took laying prone on an old comforter.  Anything for my art!

Lenten Rose in Snow
Lenten Rose will shrug off the snow and keep blooming. It enjoys the snow.
Sedum Buttons In Snow
The thick fleshy foliage of Sedum protects it from the snow.
