first snow: japanese maple

    We got our first real snow of the year last night - 2-3 inches of it. ;)

    Taken because it's apparently tradition to capture the first major snow on the Japanese maple tree on our street ever year: see last year's.

    Woo! Hit Explore for November 20, 2008. :)

      We got our first snow of the season earlier this week too... except I live in the Southeastern US! LOL. Nice contrast of the red maple leaves and the white snow. I only had a dogwood to photograph and it wasn't as pretty :)

      Fabulous juxtaposition. I love when the leaves are still on the trees for the first snowfall.
