<br />
Spotted this snow dome across the harvest block.<br />
<br />
The top of this balsam fir has this pile of snow supported on the top. I am guessing the top is broken off. The tree was a little to big to shake the dome of to see why it stuck there.<br />

I know what you are saying "where are all the pictures of the drummers and geese being cooked"? Well I am working up to that. The image just never seems to capture the moment.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I seem to be better at capturing the trees and birds and the bugs. I am working on people, respectful people pictures. It is easy to take pictures with people in them, but not so easy to capture the person, respecting their cultural diversity.</div>

This black spruce got a twist somehow maybe 50 years ago.<br />
Some may say this is a Culturally Modified Tree, but this is in the middle of nowhere.<br />
I am thinking snow made this one.<br />
