Late Spring Snow by Mary Collar

Late Spring Snow by Mary Collar
I am constantly surprised by the way the sun in late spring affects the colors of the snow
and the surrounding rocks and vegetation.
The common misconception that snow is always white is far from the truth. Those who take
time to really look at snow would notice the soft pastel shades of blue and lavender and in
the shadows a much deeper blue. Rocks glowing yellow, orange, purple and dark red can
reflect these colors back to snow as pale peach, shades of pink and warm tans and gold.
Next time you are out during a warm spring day with snow still on the ground stop and take a look.
I’ll bet you’ll be surprised.
