Ed snapped these great shots of his curved walls before he headed outside. The snow on the horizontal surfaces of these walls accentuates the irregularities of the field stone we have here. The stones used are far from bricks . They are even very different from uniform thickness blue stone you might buy by the pallet. My photography teacher would have loved these shots. He was fond of a curved path that disappears out of sight. Ahh the drama of the unknown is exciting!
I'm somewhat fascinated with the one clump of snow sticking out from the wall on the right . It seems to be just hanging there. I'm curious about how it came to be formed in such a way and truthfully I'm a bit stumped. One wonders if it will collect more snow and become larger or just drop off when it warms up. All this mystery from snow, stones and wind. Isn't it amazing where a gardener's mind wanders in January?
No time for this kind of reverie for Ed, he is still out there plowing the driveway again. The snow continues to fall.

I love stone walls or fences. This is a very intriguing photo with the curve invoking the mystery of it all. Very well done. Grace
I, too, love your stone, as you know, and those are great shots. Good luck to Ed in keeping ahead of all that snow. :)
