Snow, I want to wash my hands, my face and hair with snow....

We received a decadent snow storm in the District yesterday, and I couldn't have been more thrilled! I walked about and snapped some photos. Please enjoy, if snow's your thing.

  3. That's because I took them on my way to work -7a. It's DC, no one knows how to react to snow, so they all stay inside. The last few pics are from Logan Circle. The church pic is in Georgetown.

    Only you would appreciate the White Christmas reference!

  5. Snow just makes everything so much more beautiful. I love the quiet when walking around - even in the middle of the day. I put my snow pix up, too. But they're the opposite of yours!

  6. Mr. Bluehaunt- Sorry for all the hard working shoveling, but I'm sure that you looked great out there doing it!

    P.D. - I totally agree with you, and have been MAD about snow since I was a little boy. Everything seems so quiet, peaceful, and intimate. Your pics are GREAT by the way!

    Pauly, baby - Thanks for the nice comment. I'm glad you enjoyed #6. It was wicked cold on the way to the bus stop that morning, but I got some very lovely shots!

  8. That fourth photo you took of the iron bench detail is stunning. It's out of another century. I feel as though Elsie de Wolfe is just about to step into frame...

  9. DC is a beautifully historic town. Snow days are especially magical - no one ventures out into the streets. As I was taking those photos I felt completely alone. My mind, reeling as it often does, sent me to another time - so perceptive of you to notice.

  11. C.B.D.- DC is a very small city, it's easy walk from one neighborhood to another. I can't wait to see your posted photos!
