Snow you don’t have to shovel!
« on: February 12, 2017, 01:41:38 pm »

Living in the LA area we get to enjoy a view of the snow without having to worry about shoveling sidewalks and sliding around the icy roads.

Here are a few of my recent shots of the snow-covered San Gabriel Mountains from a safe and green distance (the first two panos created from multiple images).

Nice ones.

I'm tempted to send you a photo of my snow thrower so you can insert it on top of the mountain in the third photo.

The only mountains I can see from my house near Boston are the mountains of snow I just threw and shoveled.   :'(

Thanks Eric! Hope our members back East are holding up alright. It's in the '70s in LA.

In case anyone is curious, if you climb the mountain and look back, here's what It looks like. And no, I've never been up there. That's what the internet is for!

Keep it up, wiseguy..  You's about to get a punch in da face!   >:( :P

In the upper midwest, we also get to have the pleasure of dealing with freezing cold temperatures.  At least now that I'm living in an apartment instead of a house, I don't have to do any snow-blowing anymore.  But we still all have to get out and move our cars when the plow comes to push the crap around.  ::)

Might be nice to photograph, but certainly no fun having to put up with it.

You looking to add any roommates?  I promise I wont punch you in da face..   ;D

I have my annual physical tomorrow; it's not my face I'm worried about ;-)

I like the feel of the 1st one the most, slightly sparse and abstract.

Thanks John! I'm tempted to throw some dramatic clouds in there...

Needs more snow to be skiable but I do some some potential lines...
Nice shots of some good looking mountains.

It's been raining here lately too but that is very unusual for us this time of year. We just had the snowiest January anyone can remember and then it's turned to rain in February except above 10,000 Ft.
