Snow flakes or crystals?

Amazing what winter weather can do.

Feathery shapes on winter windows.

Magic seems to increase when the temps drop.

Snowman in Rockport.

After the last snow storm, Rockport gained some charming, but recognizable additions to it’s population.

But these, at first glance, looked like unformed blobs, not quite finished. But on second glance these blobs took on a vague 17th or 18th century look. A man and woman emerge, but am not sure what the smaller one is.

Snow silhouette.

Can you see an appealing female silhouette? Am not sure if this was intended by the sculptor, but there it is.

Are they ghosts frozen in snow?

Snowflakes on window, blue sky, winter in Maine.

After a winter storm in Maine the sky is usually bright blue.

Just a tiny glimpse of yesterday’s storm.

In Maine, the bright, sunny days that come when a storm departs are always amazing!
