Description
“The snow is melting into music.”
~ John Muir
~1838-1914
Winter frosts the Ford of the Jordan Creek, one of my very favorite places to be and to photograph, at Trexler Nature Preserve, Schnecksville, Pennsylvania, composing a symphony of winter beauty.
I shot this frosty scene as the light of the looming sunset waltzes on the icy waters soon after the historic January Blizzard of 2016. In a winter shorn of snow until the blizzard, the storm plonked 31 inches of snow on nearby Allentown in a 24 hour period.

Tami, what a dreamy, exquisite glimpse of winter; the scene glistens! I love the poetic prose of John Muir, also; that line is beautiful. And your own prose paints a memorable, poetic image: "as the light of the looming sunset waltzes on the icy waters." Thank you for staying in touch, and Happy Easter to you and your family! l/f

Tami Quigley replied:
Thanks so very much Reynold! Well we didn't get 31 inches at one time this year, but we did get a 27.3 inch snowstorm in February ... four inches less LOL
