Winter Beauty in Northeastern Washington

Growing up in north Idaho winter meant deep snow, hillsides covered with evergreen trees that looked like they had been flocked, snowmen, and frosty windows.The beauty that surrounds me now is different, yet beautiful in a different way. The moisture and the clouds today created a lovely sight with the trees along the highway.

The creek close to home created a stark beauty combining ice, water,snow, gray, and black.

Lake Roosevelt is a vast body of water behind Grand Coulee Dam. On days like today it looks like we are along the ocean. The gray, cold water set off the setting sun at the horizon. Gray, black, and white were dominant colors today during my photo walk, but JEJ brought some red into focus with his bright red coat.
