Snow day!

School’s closed! …wait, I’m 37 and I work remotely. Anyway, it’s my first snowfall in my own home, so I got out my camera and shot some pictures from the comfort of my porch.

A view of my porch from inside. About an inch of snow is balanced on the porch railing.

A view from my porch down to the courtyard, showing the front gate and other porches covered in the start of snow.

Straight down from my porch to the courtyard, the footpaths are almost pristine, except for a single set of tracks through the snow.

The parking lot behind my building. We see a garbage truck pulling away, through an overlay of tangled power cables covered in snow.

The snowfall is really impeding visibility; a small tower maybe a quarter-mile away is barely visible.

A view of a parked car through a chain-link fence overgrown with some kind of vine. The car’s radio antenna pokes defiantly through the two inches of snow piled on top of the car.

A view down the alley to the street from three floors up, tilted at a Dutch angle for drama’s sake.
