Being from the tropical country, I never have had the experience of seeing snowfall, Though, in places like Srinagar, Gulmarg, Shimla etc., in India one can witness snowfall in the winter, I could not go there to see that.
However, in one of the trips to USA to visit my children, I happened to stay there through the winter. And what an experience that was, exhilarating to see the snow-clad buildings, streets, trees.
Snow is precipitation in the form of flakes of crystalline water ice that falls from clouds. Since snow is composed of small ice particles, it is a granular material. It has an open and therefore soft, white, and fluffy structure, unless subjected to external pressure. Snowflakes come in a variety of sizes and shapes. Types that fall in the form of a ball due to melting and refreezing, rather than a flake, are hail, ice pellets or snow grains.
I shot extensively to capture the beautiful visuals, in my first experience with snowfall.
Here are some pictures shot in Pennington, New Jersey where my son lives in his own home.
