Springtime Snowstorm in Ely, Cambs
One of Maria Antonia’s Weekly Photo Challenges was to capture the idea of frozen. The photo attached here is from the 1990s in a freak late springtime snow which fell while we were living in Ely, Cambridgeshire. The look of surprise on my daughter, Rain’s face is priceless, and it was quite an exciting experience for her as she was on her way to collect the milk bottles from the garden gate.
She seems to draw the stuff to her. Below is another photo, this time taken by her husband near their home in the Colorado Rockies.

Rain in the snow
Frozen wonder – Winter’s last little surprise
Coating spring-tides blossom and bloom
A whitewash of wonder covering the green
One last chilly blast – the the warmth resume
Padre
Oh, how much more gentle is the Ely winter than that in Colorado. I bet your daughter says the same.

Love the photo! The look on her face 🙂
(And what fun to compare it to the one in Colorado.)
