Snow, fog, rain, and ice
iaian7 » blog John Einselen, 7.01.08
Today marked a massive climate shift; after weeks of cold weather, snow, and ice, we suddenly got a warm draft of air here in south-eastern Michigan. While I sadly missed much of the thickest fog, I did manage to traipse around in my Sunday boots and grab some pictures from around the apartment grounds. No photoshop needed, save for some colour correction and contrast adjustments. As it has already been asked, no, the fog is not fake.
I did manage to accidentally tear off all four of my tzitzit tassels in the process of hiking through the snow and ice, and my pants were completely soaked from the ground up a foot or two. For January it’s surprisingly warm, but after a couple hours I was feeling kinda chilled, and by 6:00 it was too dark for photos anyway. Once inside I realized I’d lost my camera remote somewhere in the piles of snow. Guess it’s time to start looking for a new one.
These have also been posted to Flickr, along with a few extras.

Alas, the downside of living here is the boring weather: ‘sunny and warm,’ ‘sunny and warmer, ‘sunny and hot. But I’m adjusting. And the sky and mountains give the most dramatic shows (usually when I’m driving to work in traffic without a camera).
