A few hundred miles makes a big difference, Dallas tends to be colder in the winter and hotter in the summer, great image, Jeff #1077246

You picked a perfect scene for this snowy picture! It must be nice with some snow now and then for you. I used to live above the Arctic Circle, where people said they could understand why the birds flew south for the winter, but never understand why they came back. #7117165

Mitch Spence level-classic February 04, 2009

Boy, you've gotten more snow in Dallas than we have here in central Missouri. Just a bit of ice and snow dusting so far this year. (And of course, nothing pretty to photograph.) I just noticed that you're using the Sigma 28-300. I've had that lens a long time. It's a real workhorse and one I'd hate to do without. #7125957

Hey Jeff, looks like a terrific winter image. I know you're loving your NIK Silver Efex Pro. It reminds me of one of the bridges in Yosemite in the winter.
