Past-E-Mail: Cam Notes - 2010: March: Mar 16-10 |
By Mary Drew at Pasty Central (Mdrew) on Tuesday, March 16, 2010 - 05:13 am: Donna MacIntosh was out with camera in hand recently, to document the departure of the many inches of snow we've received here UP North this winter. With the unseasonably warmer temps, the sunshine and then top it off with rain, the snow has really taken a hit around here. But as it's going, it is also making some artistic natural shapes as Donna shows us with these two photos. The top one is almost hard to look at, since Donna somehow captured the extreme brightness of those shining rays, just as if you're looking directly at the sun. Then with her second photo, she captured the bright blue of the sky as a backdrop to the intricate design that nature is creating. What was it Joe Kirkish called this type of art recently? I remember now... "ephemeral" art, meaning short-lived. That describes these formations quite well. By Donna (Donna) on Tuesday, March 16, 2010 - 06:09 am:
A coworker said the top pic almost looks like a unicorn! That was a fun little walk around the back yard! Amazing what Mother Nature puts out there! By mickill mouse (Ram4) on Tuesday, March 16, 2010 - 06:49 am: the second picture looks like a bird in flight. beautiful pictures. By mickill mouse (Ram4) on Tuesday, March 16, 2010 - 06:51 am: Oh Yeah, I can see the unicorn, too ;O) By Thomas Baird (Thomas) on Tuesday, March 16, 2010 - 07:16 am: By Serena Sturm (Serena) on Tuesday, March 16, 2010 - 08:02 am:

That first photo is amazing. Very, very well done. Haven't seen a photo like that before. By Eddyfitz (Eddyfitz) on Tuesday, March 16, 2010 - 09:06 am: Lakes lost 78 - 57 to Bark River Harris last evening. The Lakes had a great season. By Rowdy (Roudymi) on Tuesday, March 16, 2010 - 09:46 am: I'd say the second one is definately a dgxpleet from planet Zeno. I saw 5 one time in the 3rd hemisphere. Was cloudy that day.

Long (Gary_in_co) on Tuesday, March 16, 2010 - 12:13 pm: Everybody sees something different. To me, the first photo looks like ice and the second one looks like snow. But that's just me. By Lisa R. (Sisugirl) on Tuesday, March 16, 2010 - 12:32 pm:
I see a horse in the first one (not seeing a horn that would make it a unicorn). I'm with Jacobsville/Barb on the second one -- looks like a sea horse -- actually two, to my eyes. A mother with a baby riding on her back. Neat pictures! By Just me (Jaby) on Tuesday, March 16, 2010 - 04:58 pm: Oh what beautiful photos today. It really is amazing to think about all the beauty around us in the most simple aspects of nature.God's canvas........ By Donna (Donna) on Tuesday, March 16, 2010 - 07:58 pm:
