Driving up Mount Bachelor two years ago, we were surprised by a sudden burst of snow (in late April). We went to a turnabout and this is what we saw:
1. The snow is falling
2. And falling
Thanks for looking.

The second one is more dramatic. Nice shots.

Re: Snowburst at Mount Bachelor
Wow! That's some fierce weather. Did you get out into it or did you shoot this from the vehicle?

Re: Snowburst at Mount Bachelor
We actually went out of the car to experience the snowburst. There was an emergency snow shelter in the turnabout for emergencies. Needless to say, we headed back down the mountain and went to the rainforest near Bend, Oregon.
Mount Bachelor and environs had record breaking snow that year. So much snow that there was skiing until July. We tried to go to the summit by another way a day later. Unsurprisingly, a wall of snow over twenty feet thick blocked the road past the ski area.

Cool
A65 16mm-50mm 2.8
Tamron 72E 90mm 2.8 Macro
Sony 35mm 1.8 Sony
Sony 55-300mm and 55-200mm
My mind is a raging torrent, flooded with rivulets of thought cascading into a waterfall of creative alternatives.

Love those shots Almazar - I like the layers of trees disappearing into the snow

Looks even a bit eerie like this. Great tones in both shots!

Scary that one can get caught in a burst like that and imagine you are not in a 4 wheel drive.
The second one is very dramatic too.
With best regards,

Re: Snowburst at Mount Bachelor
Those shots look like our back yard on Sunday. We got over 12 inches of snow in about 10 hours!
My back is still sore from shoveling!
