Week 6: Sun & Snow!


This weekend, I went up to Lake Arrowhead for my first ever trip to see snow! It was magical. One thing I noticed about the snow was how the sun played off it. Since it is the end of the season, the sun was out and shining throughout the weekend. As anyone who has been to snow can say, it is very bright. It's white! And when the bright completely white light of the sun bounces off the very bright white snow, it can hurt your eyes. I felt like I was in a magical sunny winter wonderland.

After spending the day in the snow, I came to truly appreciate a new kind of natural light I've never experienced before. It was nature working with nature and creating something beautiful. You definitely needed sunglasses to avoid blindness :), but it was so gorgeous to watch the rays of sun bounces and glittering off the snow. I can't wait to go to the snow again!!
