Ephemeral

Snow is rare in central Alabama, but when it does arrive, we give the cows
 extra hay, stock up on milk and bread and make sure the generators work.
 But then, it only lasts maybe a day!

Hence, snow is my choice for "Ephemeral," November's theme
 for City Daily Photo Blogs. This Snowpocalyse occurred in January 2014.
 It was the surprise "flash snow and ice" event that sent everybody spinning,
 especially on the highways where numerous accidents were reported,
 and many people had to abandon their vehicles and walk.

Now that comes as a complete surprise to me, snow on the ground in Alabama!
It's a beautiful picture, ephemeral and otherwise.

I can definitely imagine snow being brief but startling... I wonder what the cows think of it.

Here it settles in and stays around for months on end.

Now, if only the snow in my part of the world were so ephemeral!

A fine selection for the "ephemeral" theme. Rare southern snow.

With all these autumn leaves about I forget that snow could be around the corner. Love the shot.
