Two Shades Of White Six Months Apart

In re-organizing my photos I stumbled on one taken in May when we were biking near Nokomis Lake in Minneapolis, and one taken yesterday on my hike up Mt Sentinel near Missoula. The beauty in both of them (well, besides Laurie that is) is the brilliant white with textured patterns, a work of nature's paint brush. One is spring flowers while the other is thick frost from ice fog...world's apart!
