A Late April Blizzard


 









Today was another crazy day in regards to the weather. About 4 to 5 inches of wet snow fell overnight, then it got intermittently sunny and most of it melted.  Then it got cloudy and snowed again.  And it snowed hard.  The flakes were some of the biggest I've ever seen. They were so big you could heard them as they hit the ground.  As the giant flakes pelted the forest it sounded like rain falling. The snow was coming down at such a rapid rate that distant views of the forest looked like an abstract painting, especially when combined with a slow shutter speed.  Both of these photos were taken at a focal length of 200mm.  The first image was an exposure time of 1/10 of a second and the 2nd image had an exposure time of 1/400 of a second.
