MGR: In case you're not tired

... of pictures of ice, here are some more.  The sun came out today, so 
it's incredibly pretty.  I'm sure there's a bunch of photographers out 
right now all over the city, freezing their butts off with all the 
polarizing lenses and star lenses and whatnot, but I just had a little 
Sony digital.  The closeups look really spiffy, but the wider shots can't 
really capture the lighting well at all.  I'm actually surprised I didn't 
overload the CCD with some of these.

These are all 640x480, though the originals are larger (except for the 
tight shot of the mailbox, which I cropped my hand out of because I was 
shading the lens from the direct sunlight and got too close).

The mailbox and barberry out front.  Look ma, lens flare!

Barberries, from the other side.

Backlit hackberry sprouts out back.

Looking over the hackberry sprouts.  You lose a lot of the sparklies on
the wider shots.

The honeysuckle on the back of the house, also with fewer sparklies than
in real life.

And, just to prove that I'm really not that great a photographer, the tree
over the house.  I can't even hold the camera straight.

Meanwhile, a goodly chunk of the city is without power (my son's out of 
school because so many of the schools are), but otherwise things are 
pretty much back to normal.
