Peaceful Valley

Friends asked me to take a photo of their house from a bend in the road on our way home, for next year's Christmas card.
I hope this is the LAST snow picture for the year! This winter has been ridiculous...

They should be very pleased with this photo. How about a single evergreen wreath near the top of the first chimney?

The capture of the falling snow and contrast against the house is really lovely.

You did a great job for them, Sandy! The falling snow really makes it special. Too bad they didn't turn some lights on for you. It would have made it look more like a warm and welcome shelter from the snow storm.
