Fortunately for me, I was free to go out for a walk this morning, and although a combination of sleet and rain was falling steadily, it was fun to wander with a camera. Also fortunate is that the camera and lens are pretty solidly weather sealed (though not truly "waterproof" by any means).
I was following a little creek that runs through our neighborhood park. It flows into Crabtree Creek, which I've pictured here a few times.
Most of what caught my eye today was detail, rather than a large, sweeping landscape. That's mostly because there isn't much of a grand landscape where I was.
I think this fallen leaf was caught and imprisoned in a jail of ice twigs.
Even a drainage conduit looks nicer in icy weather.
I found some leaves embedded in packed snow.
On my way home, I spotted some kids having fun, and Max the dog seemed to be as excited as anyone could be!
