Snow!

This fantastic display took place in April of 2016. A late-season snow briefly blanketed vegetation, and so I took some photos.

Do Not Cry, My Child

Do not cry, my child
Your mother has just slept after weeping a long while,
Do not cry, my child
Only some time back, your father has departed
Relieved of all sorrow,
Do not cry my child,
Your brother is away to an alien land
And your sister has gone away the same way,
Do not cry my child,
They have just bathed the dead sun and buried the moon.

I had already taken some nice, fiery shots and packed everything up when I looked outside again and saw this. Thank you, Jonas.
