Frozen Ram

The emblem on the tailgate of my Ram Powerwagon. It doesn't mind snow at all.

Rolling Fields Of Snow

The sun is setting behind the Salmon River Canyon in the distance. Fog can be seen in the canyon along the horizon.

Deceitful Drops

Though the icicle appeared to be melting, the temperature was only 5 degrees Fahrenheit. The sun had broken through the clouds and was shining directly on it. This was taken with a vintage Russian Helios 44mm f2 lens on my Sony a7rii.

Buried

My 1969 Dodge Powerwagon is buried under a lot of snow, but I have no doubt that it would pull right out of it. It has a 383 and sounds so good.

Hard Life

This 1949 Studebaker does run, but is staying right there for winter it looks like.
