Here's our weather this morning. Hopefully, we'll rise a degree or 2 in the temp and it will melt off before it accumulates on the power lines too much. I thought I had these sized small enough, but I don't, so I had to link them.

I love to wake up and see an icy world. It is surreal. http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/36/36_11_14.gif (http://www.smileycentral.com/?partner=ZSzeb001_ZNxdm824MNUS)

Yeah, it is definitely beautiful and surreal. I have a series of pics from 2002 when it broke power poles for miles around, destroyed the trees everywhere and all, but even in that, it was like looking through crystal glasses or something. I tried to capture it with the camera, but that just don't work...lol.

Cool! My best friend just moved back to Tahlequah this year. We've been to Tulsa a couple times when I visited her. That country up around there is so different from here...beautiful.

I have done the same thing, and it just doesn't capture the moment right. I remember looking down a row of pine trees and the sun was glistening off what look to be glass covered trees. It was beautiful. But the picture really didn't even capture the ice, it looked like drooping pine trees.

BTW, I recently got my old 35mm camera out and started taking pictures again. With all the lenses and attachments I thought it was wasted sitting in my closet. We'll see what becomes of it, when I get the film developed I'll ask for a disc with the pictures on it. :bigtup:

Yep, I know just what you mean. I'll be anxious to see how your film comes out.

Back during our ice storm, one pasture had tall, dead, bluestem grass (not sure if you're familiar but bluestem stays pretty well standing when it dies; it just turns yellow), and it literally looked like a crystal ocean, but on film it just looked like dead bluestem with "stuff" on it...lol. One of my favorites though is this one, it sorta shows some of the beauty, but you still don't get the crystal effect:

Even though there is a lot of branches down, I am amazed at how much weight a tree can support. I would grow tired and fall down, but a tree can hold that weight until it melts and then springs right back to the place it was before.

That's a great picture, btw.
