Snowy Saturday (Original Photography)

Howdy,

It's been awhile since my last post, and it may be awhile until the next one. Things have been very busy, here, with my own graduate coursework becoming ever more demanding and the Spanish 101 class that I teach needing a lot of extra work. I did get a couple chances to go out for a few quick photo runs, though!

^{Refusing To Fall}

This tree has been dead since I arrived in Mankato two years ago and still refuses to fall. High wind, snow, bitter cold... None of these have managed to topple the twisted wreck. It is very photogenic, though! The contrast between living and dead is even more stark in the summer, when the surrounding trees are covered in lush, green leaves.

^{Morning Meeting}

Minneopa State Park's bison herd seem to be getting their winter coats, at last. Today, they were lazing around at the edge of their patch of prairie. Well, Saturday's a good day to be lazy.

^{Lay and snowcone}

When the snow began falling last night, I made a quick walk downtown with the camera and saw the lady-and-a-baby statue covered in snow. That must be one very cold metal infant!
