Dave’s Photo Blog

Now I must tell you in all fairness that I absolutely love the snow. I really do. Even though it’s a pain to shovel it. You know you are having a good snow year when it starts to get hard to figure out where to put it when you do shovel.

First, the uncomfortable part. I had no idea this photograph was so full of tension until I got in into Lightroom. I just didn’t see it when I was taking the photo. I saw it when I cropped it to straighten the fence. It was then I realized how terribly wrong this picture is.

But look, here’s the deal. The snow is going to come off. It always comes off. There’s a very simple reason: your vehicle gets warm as you drive it. The roof heats up. A layer of water forms between the snow and the rooftop.

Now, I want to take this moment to tell you that I’m hereby coining the phrase Sun Fall to refer to this condition. There’s probably tens of thousands of other people who have already done it and quite a few of them are also likely named Dave, but in the off-chance that I’m the first, there you are.
