I have decided to keep a photo record of what I see when I visit the Snake River at the same spot each week for a year. That field of white is the Snake River covered in ice and snow. As with all my best ideas, this is one I borrowed from someone else. Zazzy takes a picture out her window every week. Out my window is nothing but a fence. So I drive downtown to the “green belt” and take the same shot every week. I will be posting a new group of photos each month.
Week One
Week Two
Week Three
We got lucky today, the sun is shining!
The tracks in the snow are from the ducks and geese.
Week 4
Other than the number of ducks, week 1 and week 4 look pretty much the same. So, I’ve decided to post pictures of the open water “duck pond” in the river as well. You will notice some changes in it. Apparently I failed to shoot the pond every week.
Week 1
Quite a large area of open water. Off to the right is another, smaller open area.
Week 2
This shot was taken from the opposite side of the river.
Week 3
As you can see, today the open area is frozen almost closed. It’s been very cold.
