I shot this this morning from my porch. Nice to see a little snow although I'd prefer a lot!

Yeah, at first it looks like a dusty scan.

Yeah, or how my shots have looked after being in a wind storm at the Great Sand Dunes NP!
The W was originally for my alma mater, Western State College which has since become Western State Colorado University. Still applies!

Looks kinda like an ice plume/geyser on Enceladus.
