I just took this picture about 5:45 P.M out the back window. This is what I have been seeing at dawn and dusk. In French it's called L'heure bleu, the blue hour. On Saturday morning, the winter vista looked just like this. As more light appeared, the sky turned gray, and the snow became white. So what color is the snow, the sky? Is it really possible to say that it's anything more than a momentary combination of light, angle, background, reflection and shade? I'm only certain of its beauty.
