Although it is March, winter here in Edmonton doesn’t show any signs of leaving. It was -20C on the weekend, with a nice 40-60km/h wind. I did go out to see if I can get some cool shots snow drifts. After almost getting stuck a couple of times, I gave up the adventure, and concentrated my efforts close to home, namely my backyard. The wind had been creating interesting patterns in the snow. I had to stand on a chair to give this more of a birds eye view. Almost got blown off a couple of times. Just so you can enjoy the final effect.
Wow, this is a great finding, what a winter in March this year in Alberta!
We appreciate the danger you out yourself through to bring us these photos 🙂
Looks more like Sand though to me, but maybe that is because that is about all I see day in day out ….. what is it with the cold and people wanting ti live in it!
Hmmm, there was no danger in taking that photo…. and personally I’ll take the snow over sand 🙂 At least snow melts when it gets under your shirt. Here in Canada, unless you are on the west coast, you are used to the fact that there is only 9 months of winter, and the rest is all summer 🙂
Very cool pic – especially the aerial perspective gives it a dramatic feel – looks lonely down there 🙂
