Description
Thank you so much for your comments on my last upload. :-) I do hope you all have a wonderful weekend.
This photo was taken on October 23rd verrry early in the morning following our first little snowfall. After I snapped this picture of the snow melting off of the leaves, I stood up and saw 2 deer in the meadow down below! Of course, when I stood up quickly, they saw me too, and took off so I missed the picture. Ah well...I enjoyed watching them bound towards me into the camoflage of the shrubs... hehe I did wait very quietly to see if they would venture back out but it started to rain. : /
(((hugs)))

Wonderful story, love those shared experiences, the thrill of the unexpected! We had some snow today as well resulting in chaos in traffic on railways and roads! But you're right, snow IS cleansing somewhat, covering all the dirt in this world with a spotless white cover! Wonderful work, Maggie! :)
That's a typical story of a opertune photo NOT captured!!!!LOL!!!!! I love to hear everyone's adventures!! This is a cool shot of heavy snow on the leaf!! Thanks for sharing this Maggie!! Hope you had a nice Thanksgiving!!!! ;)*****
Beautiful shot Maggie, I love the contrast between the white of the snow and the colored leaf. Great shot !
What a treat for the Senses...a fine Show here Maggie....the Deer.,..another Day...salute

Beautiful "cold morning" shot. Excellent capture!!!

I hate this kind of wet/snowy/wet/snowy/sleety weather...it should make it's bloody mind up what it's going to do! Ace capture by you though...pity 'bout the deer! xxx
Beautiful shot, love the lighting, well seen and executed. Never mind the deer will be back. Great Image, love the decay, that total cold feeling, lovely textures. S

Great composition and beautiful shot my deer,ooops I mean my dear...lol...I'm sure you'll get another chance at the deer...Hope you had a great Thanksgiving.
shiver... yes, winter's coming! It's already pretty cold here! A beautiful capture, Maggie!
Superb shot Mags... so clear, and eeps frost and snow, I"m not ready for either quite yet... :) Love this one as it shows the green of the leaves against the frost which always has a lovely effect.
very beautiful Maggie and a sight seen is better than not. It is not likely we will have any snow this winter if our dry spell continues
Marvellous shot! Looks like suds on the leaves. The winter is definitely here.
OMG!!!! Do you realize that you are only 2.... count 'em...... two uploads away from the "big" number?????? Congrats in advance and I'll be sure to catch that one in the next couple days! Oh yeah.... we were talking deer, were we not? Oh, if I could have a dollar for every missed shot..... Bill Gates would have to move over!!! The other day I was in a hurry and I missed.. not one..... not two..... but three shots! A fox being one of them and I haven't even seen one in a couple years :( (extremely heavy sigh!!!) Notice how I am avoiding the conversation of anything to do with snow or winter...... take that as a hint..... I'm not ready!!!! Well, except for that burning desire to ski!!!! Must be the Gemini in me.... all this love/hate syndrom!!!! AAAAAGGGGHHHHHH!!!!! Sorry, just trying to fill a void while Andreas is gone, bla bla bla!!!! LOL :P Hugs!!
What she said! only fill snowboarding in with skiiing!1 Lovely shot, very nice, looks wet and cold! 8-)
