The Beauty and Evil of Winter...


The scenery following yesterday's storm rekindled my love for winter and its elegant beauty... 
despite the cold...


The icy rain entirely froze to every tree branch and every berry...


 The morning after the storm brought great danger with great beauty. The carefully wrapped ice weighed down the branches and caused some of them to snap. Many branches fell onto roads, onto roofs, and onto telephone cables.

 
Who would suspect that such beauty would leave over 200 000 Torontonians without power for days?
