There’s a blizzard outside, but I’m channeling my inner Harry Callahan.

Some people hate, I mean HATE winter.  They can’t wait for the day that they can retire and move someplace warm like Florida.  Not me.  I love winter, and not just because I cannot tolerate temperatures above 65ºF.  I love how winter, and especially snow, reduces things to an elemental essence.  All extraneous details and texture get washed over in a sea of white, leaving only the strongest of forms.  Distraction is buried, left to sleep until spring.
