We finally got some snow here in the Glade — not much, but enough to give us a white coating.
The picture above (which can be enlarged by clicking on it) was taken in 2006, but it is representative of the way things looked yesterday and today. The picture was taken on the 14th fairway of the Druid Hills golf course. (I wonder how many golf balls are at the bottom of that pond?)
I like this picture because of the gray skies, the white coating of snow, the bare trees, the dark waters and the reflection in the water. All in all it does a pretty good job of showing why we think the Glade is beautiful any time of the year.

It’s a beautiful shot. It would be interesting to know how many golf balls are down there. 🙂

excellent shot! love the reflection in the water, awesome..

This is postcard perfect George!
The reflection is beautiful.
My nephew works part-time at a golf course and was telling me not long ago there was golf balls all over the top of one of their ponds. I guess some people still brave the elements.

Very pretty indeed!

Excellent photo! Very peaceful as well.

It is a very serene photo… I have always been a fan of reflections and this definitely fits into my collection!
January 21, 2009 at 7:25 am |
Wow, it’s beautiful…so peaceful. You did get more snow than us!
January 21, 2009 at 7:30 am |
Love the reflections in the water! The scenery is almost like home these days! And thank you for following my blog – I am honoured!

We got snow too. This picture turned out great.

George: Snow does give a wonderful covering of white to the world. someone probably dives and collects the golfballs from the lake. That is a business for them to make money.
January 21, 2009 at 9:12 am |
That is a magnificent photograph George.
January 21, 2009 at 9:19 am |
This is a beauty–I thought it looked like a nice little place to go fishing till I read that it was on a golf course.
January 21, 2009 at 9:33 am |
Beautiful and serene. 🙂
January 21, 2009 at 9:39 am |
You are so lucky to live in such a beautiful place George. Hope y’all have a wonderful day.
January 21, 2009 at 10:23 am |
Wow, that is sheer beauty with the still water and almost B&W look.
January 21, 2009 at 10:40 am |
I love snow photos! That is a good one.
January 21, 2009 at 10:41 am |
The water looks like beautiful dark glass against the snow! Beautiful!

That could so be taken just around the corner from where I live. Looks just like my surroundings. Now our ponds are frozen and there has not been any snow until yesterday. Tonight there was a proper layer that is just about melting away again now.
Great contratst in your picture George. Very enjoyable.
January 21, 2009 at 2:05 pm |
Very nice winter scene – I love the look of the sky!
January 21, 2009 at 6:00 pm |
That looks like a quiet place right now.
January 21, 2009 at 6:00 pm |
This photo is wonderful. I like it for every single reason you mentioned. And it also looks peaceful.
January 21, 2009 at 7:45 pm |
it looks like you shot it in B&W…great atmosphere in this photo.
January 21, 2009 at 11:57 pm |
Mary, the picture is really a color picture — that just shows how gray it was that day.
January 21, 2009 at 8:28 pm |
That’s one beautiful winter wonderland scene. We seldom see any thing like that here.
January 21, 2009 at 8:53 pm |
Thanks for stopping by, George!
January 21, 2009 at 9:47 pm |
Almost looks like ice should be on lake, but you are too far south probably for that … but not too far south for an occasional snow. Still, I bet that water’s cold!
January 21, 2009 at 11:53 pm |
That picture was taken in 2006, but we have ice on much larger lakes this winter. I’m not sure it’s thick enough to walk on, but we definitely have iced-over lakes.

I love the reflection in the pond; it is such a peaceful scene in spite of the cold. Thanks for stopping by my WW post. By the way, I have a link under the photo that will take you to a series of photos I took at that park. One of the pics shows the complete statue. Cheers from rainy CA.

I love the reflection in the water ~ it’s all so peaceful, serene and beautiful!
January 22, 2009 at 11:20 am |
I love the reflections in the water, and the way there are no hoirzontal or vertical lines! They are all angles, and that seems to keep your eye moving through the photo!
Thanks for sharing!
January 22, 2009 at 8:12 pm |
It DEFINITELY looks beautiful (and cold) … and I love the REFLECTIONS in the water ;–)
Hugs and blessings,
