This looks grainy, or out of focus. The focus is on the snowflakes in the foreground; a snow shower was ongoing and caught against a bright background.

Christmas flakes
On April 15, snowflakes (called Christmas flakes because they were large and invoked a bit of cheer) nearly obscured the neighbours’ large pine tree.
Overlooked
I had overlooked this photo of snow perched on a narrow maple twig.
Remains
Although the snow is long gone, the memory remains of coming across these spoor recently left by a fox remains.
Streaks
Snow streaks the air in front of a field lined with trees.
Forlorn.
A forlorn sunflower stalk, its flower heads long since picked bare by goldfinches, endures a late winter snowfall.
Acquired
A twig of our Silver Maple acquired a topping of heavy, wet snow during a recent snowfall.
Up
Looking up gives one a different perspective on a heavy snowfall.
Getting ready
Several weather models, the US National Weather Service, and Environment Canada all suggest a significant snowstorm will occur tomorrow. My interpretation is that between 12-20 cm (or about 4 to 8 inches) will fall starting tonight and ending Friday afternoon.
So I spent some time the last two afternoons clearing the deck and scraping the driveway/street interface – making space for more snow.
Starry night . . .
. . . no, actually not. I pointed my camera up and captured these falling snowflakes illuminated by parking lot lighting.
Back on Thursday.
