    Nice shot Pat. After Tuesday, will the Great Lakes be Ice Skating rings? Stay warm.

    There was a nice sunset over Lake Coeur D'Alene. In particular, I liked the clouds.....

    Cool

    Hey all,

    Its been some time since I last posted, what with residency and a new baby (first baby). Seems like everyone's skills continued to get better while I was gone. Like meeting back up with golf buddies and you have a new handicap. At any rate, I have a new subject at all times in the house, who will let me do fun shoots. At least I'll have something to blackmail him with later.

    Cool pic and congrats on the little guy!

    Here is a picture I took at Parker National Wildlife Refuge looking for Snowy Owls. I found some, but too far out to get a good picture.

    This is what it looked like in October:

    I haven't posted much and don't think any of these photos are destined for awards for anything, but have felt cooped up in the house and wanted to photograph something... anything... so I took these from around the house. The winter's been brutal in the midwestern USA.

    Looks like a great place to spend the night.

    Just curious... how much longer does winter last there? That is, when does the snow start receding instead of accumulating.

    It really depends on a lot of factors. At the altitude where I took the picture (around 1100m over the sea level), you won't see snow on the ground during the whole Winter. For example, there wasn't any snow in the second week of January, with temperatures around 12-15 °C (around 55-60 °F I believe), but such temperatures are unusual at this time of the year. At 2000m and above, snow is permanent between late November and April.

    Most of the time, the first snowfall that last for more than one or two days come in late November /early December, and the Snow start receding around mid March. We usually don't have much snow after March.
    Then, there are some exceptional years like 2013 when we had frequent snowfalls around 1500-2000m until late May. This picture was taken on the 28th of June last year, around 2000m, and there was still a lot of snow left, as you can see. 1999 was another special year, with around 4 to 5 meters of snow coming in 3 days. Going outside was so dangerous because of the avalanches that many schools had to close for several days. Being unpredictable is one of the main characteristic of Winter.
