Shot this yesterday early afternoon

A storm hit dropping frozen crap all day, amounting to about 3-4" of accumulation. I shot this at the trestle overlook, white stuff all over the ground, mostly gropple (or Graupel, if you want to be meteorologically correct - soft hail pellets), and I needed a better jacket, but it was bearable. The temperature 24 hours later is now just below 50 with bright blue skies with puffy clouds, so the front yard is much more brown than white.
This five-image HDR photo is a lot more brown than I expected - I didn't play with the toning with this one. Down in Alamogordo it was just rainy. I do like the layering, I'm always happy when the lighting produces a layering effect.
As always, clicken to embiggen.
