It was cloudy and cool with snow pellets showers and a few true snow
flurries. This was the first snow of the season at Singleton Lake although
nearby areas had measurable snow a few days before. I was interested in how the
snow formed patterns on the new ice. As I painted I noticed that the patterns
changed dramatically. I think the snow melted into the ice and as it did, the
patches of white snow blended into the darker swirls in the new ice. The change
is quite dramatic when one is looking at the images below separated by maybe an
hour. When one is in "the zone" and busy painting this dramatic change was only
noticed because I couldn't seem to get the drawing "right".
A flock of red polls came by as did an immature bald eagle.
