Icicles
Well, at least we have a little blue sky to look at, finally, though those icicles are quite ominous. They fell from above and got stuck in the tree, which is why they are hanging at such a peculiar angle. I want you to know that I took my life in my hands standing under them to get this shot.
If you have snowblindness from all the confinement-of-winter visuality on my blog, I have two suggestions. Inez Lenders has a spanking new, beautiful website upon which one can linger and giggle, and Natalie and Augustine have just returned from Egypt with beautiful photos.

Fantastic pic of those angled icicles. I'm sure no one has ever seen them like that before. If they haven't melted yet, can you go up the tree and get a close-up? No? Never mind, it's perfect as is.
Thanks for the mention too.
The Catholic Church, being in quite enough ethical and financial difficulty in this city, has seen fit to cordon off the sidewalk underneath with yellow plastic ribbon, to prevent a pedestrian skewer. This sadly thwarts any attempt at a really good close up. Otherwise, you know me, anything for art.
