On Oct 29 , when I took the chinook photos , I was half looking for sunrise photos. I checked and there was good color in the east. Now being lazy I took a few shots out of the window. I told myself that if I got dressed to go out , the color could be gone. Shooting in that direction there's a lot of junk in the way.
However , it's the best I could get. That bright streetlight doesn't help anything.
Then I looked west and that's when I got the chinook arch.
Today we got another 10 cm of snow. That's three days of 10 cm a day snow. Am I tired of shoveling?
I was not familiar with the Chinook arch. Thank you for introducing me to the concept, Red!
ReplyDeleteFor us it makes for variable weather. Sometimes there are quite a few in the winter
DeleteI had to do a little conversion work. 10 cm is about 4 inches. It sure seems like 3 days in a row of 4 inches of snow is a lot this early in November … but then again, I’m not really sure what is common in Red Deer. Is this really unusual? Yes, you are already tired of shoveling!
ReplyDeleteNothing is common when it comes to weather here. However, by Nov. 1 it's cold enough that when we get snow it will usually stay.
DeleteI am not looking forward to shoveling...I need to move the shovel up next to the door by Thursday from the looks of the weather report!
ReplyDeleteI thought you had a snow blower!
DeleteThe sunrise is lovely. I do not like shoveling, but it has to be done.
ReplyDeleteTake care, enjoy your day!
I don't mind shoveling unless it's wet heavy snow that sticks to your shovel.
DeleteI have told you before - if you don't like shovelling snow - tell The Micro Manager to do it. After all, what are wives for?
ReplyDeleteTo be fair to the Micro Manager , she has shoveled snow in her day.
DeleteWe had our first flurries yesterday, with some snow expected today. It's the season, eh?
ReplyDeleteI think they've had snow in Maple ridge where my son lives.
DeleteGorgeous dawn!
ReplyDeleteThose colors only lasted a few minutes.
DeleteGoodness, I am surprised you are getting so much snow, Red. Hope it lets up soon so your back get get a rest!
ReplyDeleteSnow is variable here We can get lots of snow or very little. Last winter was very dry.
DeleteI didn't go far to shoot the moon, but I did step outside. 😀
ReplyDeleteI didn't even see the eclipse. We were too busy having snow.
DeleteBeautiful sky. I aways hated shoveling and glad I don't have to any more.
ReplyDeleteThanks. I don't mind shoveling unless it's wet heavy snow.
DeleteYou must be fed up with shovelling! Take care!
ReplyDeleteI get some breaks as some neighbors do my sidewalks a lot of the time.
DeleteI'd be tired of shoveling! Did you see the lunar eclipse last night?
ReplyDeleteYou have to pace yourself with shoveling. I didn't see the eclipse. It was too busy snowing.
DeleteI hope you have lots more lovely dawns and much less shoveling in your future!
ReplyDeleteSunsets can last longer than most photographers think. Sometimes the best color and contrast is 30 min after sun sets. Take your time on the snow. Just be able to get out.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you have kind neighbors to help with the shoveling.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad we don't get snow in Sydney. I take my hat off to anyone who shovels snow
ReplyDeleteI didn't mind the light, fluffy snow we'd get when the weather was colder. For shoveling, I mean. It's the wet stuff that would break your back.
