Snow is blue, sometimes. Sometimes it is dirty.

For me, the humor in this is the idea that adults on snowmobiles are like children at play.

This is a seasonal sign added to the year-round playground sign.

After struggling to make a few different images taken at this time look the way I had envisioned it, I have decided I need to save up for a wide-angle lens. There are many times I could get closer to the effect I imagine with the proper equipment...

I know it would be better with snowmobiles, children or both in it--but it wasn't possible at the time.

The more I see of snow bound streets the happier I am I'm in the sub-tropics. Thanks for your photo.

I think that the sign needs a little more illumination to make this picture really pop. I love the texture of the snow.
