I had a strong desire to close all my exercise rings today, so I went out in pretty heavy snow while Anita napped and took a walk.
At this point I could still see where I was going.
Good news is that I’m huffing and puffing less after a week in Utah. Better news is that I looked down as I walked down the condo building sidewalk. I saw this.
This is actually the first one I saw.
When the snow falls, it melts into little puddles on the aspen leaves and makes little areas of magnification. You can see so many veins and cells in the leaves.
Look at the magnification at top right!
I also noticed the beautiful colors of the water reflected on the sidewalk.
Also, each leaf is a different color or combo.
I just had to share these images. Enjoy them!
Black and charming MultiplesThat one stem sure is shiny Look how small some little puddles are. And some are big. My favorite. Look at those veins.
