Description
I make no apologies for paraphrasing the title of the classic 1951 Laslo Benedek drama based on the play 'Death of a Salesman' by Arthur Miller
It was the first thing that came into my head when I spotted this splat of snow which had been a snowman just the day before.
I suppose in some ways it is quite a sad image - but, then again, you have to see the funny side of most things in life or else you go mad. :-)

A tragic commentary on the passage of time recorded for posterity.
Would have been nice if there was a chalk outline LOL!
LOL! A chalk outline would have been hysterical! Still, great title and capture, I've seen a few of these corpses around too, and it's quite sad...
Excellent title for this piece, it's the same here in South east London, veritable carnage has taken place in a lot of front and back gardens, there has even been tears of woe from small children...But the forcast says more snow on the way tonight?....ye gods another snowman boom!
He had to go at sometime lol, maybe he will return if you get more snow. We had a few flakes last week and that was it for us
Nice idea and capture :):):)
