A book I just reviewed about winter in Yellowstone described traveling through the landscape on an overcast day. The dark sky, white snow and dark rocks and trees gave the author the impression she was "driving into an Ansel Adams photograph." I experience much the same feeling here in the Adirondacks on dark, winter days. (Today for example.) By itself, as a moment in time, it is not a depressing or disturbing experience and carries its own beauty, mystery and interest. But I think part of the appeal is the promise of color returning to the world in the near future and the occasional flicker of color by passing birds or a colorful winter plant. Even the "shades of gray" module in the article had little red heralds on the delivery trucks in the foreground. Wayne
