Mother nature has given us a last few days to enjoy the snow. Here are some snowy favorites to enjoy.

Original Oil Painting so realistic it feels like you're there.
The Cascade Mountains of Western Canada host some of the world most spectacular mountain lakes. Here bright fall foliage and clear mountain air provide a breath-taking view of the stately peaks that are mirrored across the surface of the blue-cold lake. A place of both scenic and personal reflections.

.....................................Wikipedia................................................
The Cascade Range (or Cascades) is a major mountain range of western North America, extending from southern British Columbia through Washington and Oregon to Northern California. The Cascades are part of the Pacific Ring of Fire, the ring of volcanoes and associated mountains around the Pacific Ocean. All of the eruptions in the contiguous United States over the last 200 years have been from Cascade volcanoes. The two most recent were Lassen Peak in 1914 to 1921 and a major eruption of Mount St. Helens in 1980.

Freshly fallen snow weights heavily on the branches of the Larch Pine trees that line the now impassible road. Light streams through trees, drawing geometrical patterns. It's so quiet you can hear the earth awakening to its new blanket. It's a world and moment where you are unprotected by man's innovations; beautiful and worthy of respect.

Holland Lake Lodge is located near Missoula, Montana. It is an entrance into the Bob Marshall Wilderness, where my brother was an outfitter. "The Bob", as it is known by locals and nicknamed by the U.S. Forest Service employees, ranges in altitudes of 4,000 to over 9,000 feet (1,220 to 2750 m). A long escarpment known as the Chinese Wall averages 1,000 feet (300 m) high from its base and extends for 40 miles (64 km). Aside from numerous waterfalls, lakes, and dense forests, the wilderness is also prime Grizzly bear habitat and the U.S. Forest Service claims that the population density of this species is higher than can be found anywhere else in the U.S. outside of Alaska. The Bob is also home to many other large mammals such as moose, elk, black bear, mountain goat, bighorn sheep, wolverine, mountain lion, lynx, and wolf. Bald eagles, osprey, pelican, and trumpeter swan are just a few of the bird species found. The dense old growth forests are dominated by Douglas fir, larch, and spruce. Forest fires have changed large areas in the wilderness complex in recent years.
Wilderness areas do not allow motorized or mechanical equipment including bicycles or hang gliders. Camping and fishing are allowed; fishing requires a state license; no roads are present and there is also no logging or mining in compliance with the Wilderness Act. Some administrative cabins constructed in the early 1920s afford refuge for trail crews and wilderness rangers. Wilderness areas within National Forests and Bureau of Land Management areas also allow hunting in season.

Photography Prints Blue, crisp, and wet cold; it was the sounds of natures melody that originally drew me to this scene. The sounds of the creek from melting snow and the crisp blues emerging after days of gray make this a painting of renewal. It's the freshness after a storm or the first signs of the coming spring. Painted en plein air outside Allenspark, Colorado accounts for the small size of the original, but this breath-taking crisp morning is now a warm and treasured memory.

Spring is here in these fresh new paintings from 'The Backyard Artist", Kathy Brecheisen. Discover the world below the surface of 'The Koi Pond'. Light shines through a dark pool revealing brilliantly colored Koi. The fish frolic happily through ribbons of water-plants creating a dance of orange and white against the sapphire-blue shadows. Feathery fins and tails flow in hidden currents. A new and delightful world by "The Backyard Artist", Kathy Brecheisen. ............................................Artists...........................................................
Known as the "Backyard Artist", Kathy Brecheisen takes her inspiration from plants, insects, animals and ecosystems in her own backyard. Her use of vibrant realistic color and charming posing show a deep love and connection with nature. Kathy resides in Eudora, Kansas.

Lush foliage does little to conceal the towering eye-spotted plumes of the stately peacock. Revealed in profile, the crested head and slender silvery neck are framed in iridescent blue-green plumage that entices you for a closer peak.

.............................Wikipedia........................
Peacock as with many birds, vibrant iridescent plumage colors are not primarily pigments, but structural coloration. Such structural coloration causes the iridescence of the peacock's hues, since unlike pigments, interference effects depend on light angle.
