Ice and more ice

Icicles on the picnic tableLike much of the country, we got covered in ice on today. The icicles were beautiful! I had my nose to the grindstone all day, but at about 11 PM I stepped outside and snapped a couple pictures. I’m pretty amazed at how well the picture turned out considering the fact that to my eyes it was very dark outside. I’m thrilled with my new camera, a Sony DSC-TX7.

Tree covered in iceDD#1 spent the evening in the living room listening to tree branches snap under the weight of the ice. I poked my head out the front door long enough to get this pic. I thought the tree looked magical as it stood there glittering. See the building across the street? That’s our church. It’s a long commute to work 🙂
