Tin Bldg
The old grain silo sits by the unused railroad tracks. It's full of interesting angles, and is a great place to photograph birds.

Tennis Ball with Snowy Hat

Snowy Ball

Snow Ball 2

The dog dropped her ball outside last night. Snow fell, and by morning the ball had a snowy crown. I snapped these pics before I left for work. (Variations on a theme; wondering which I like best.)
