snow sculptures


Last week, right before I got sick, Chris and I made a couple of snow sculptures in Brampton. I'll put the pictures of mine first, since mine wasn't nearly as good as his!






This is my dragon from the front. It's kind of hard to see, but you can see the face if you look really closely.





Again, not so easy to see, but you kind of get the idea of his body size.





I was very proud of him at the time.






And this is Chris's masterpiece. My sculpture was behind his, so I didn't even see the front of his until mine was finished. He totally put me to shame.





Apparently he based it on a bunch of statues he'd seen in Japan.















Snow is definitely his medium.















And finally, here I am with a few new friends that I made that day. These ducks were actually stepping on my feet. I've never had them that close before, which is probably why I look a tad nervous in the picture.
It was an awesome day.

I like your dragon.

My best snow sculpture was a malformed snowman, a la Calvin of Calvin and Hobbes, except he does his deliberately and mine... just happenned.

Well done!

Your snow sculptures blow mine out of the water. Mine usually feature three balls of snow piled on top of one another.

I've had ducks clambering over my feet to get food before--it IS surprisingly intimidating. I hopped up on top of a picnic bench to get out of immediate range of their little stabby-stab beaks.
