“Beaver Dam
Lady in White
Here’s another view from a slightly different angle of “The Lady in White.” As in the previous post, this scene was captured on a snowy day in the cemetery at Beaver Dam, WI. The gentle snowfall made this more beautiful and serene than the photo conveys. I’m going to have to practice more on photographing falling snow.

Snow Covered Cemetery
The serenity of this cemetery scene was enhanced by the gently falling snow. All the white dots you see are snowflakes. The camera didn’t capture them well.
These photos were taken Saturday, February 26, 2011. While driving through snow, returning from a trip to visit our son in Madison, WI, we made a pit stop in Beaver Dam. There was cemetery just off the interstate. With the gently falling snow, it seemed like an opportune time and place for some interesting images.
I tweaked the tones and contrast a bit, but nothing I could do brought out the true beauty of the above scene. Guess you had to be there.
While driving along the winding snow covered paths of the cemetery, Sara noticed the “Snow” stone. It seemed so fitting, I had to take a photo. I figure, if we could find another one that says “cold,” we might be able to put winter behind us.
