Though snow was due to fall in Marblehead this weekend, I was away at a conference and thus could not photography the aftermath (or help shovel out our driveway). Instead, I decided to post this image from the Blizzard of 2013 in advance hoping that the weekend storm would pale in comparison. As I mentioned before, I couldn’t wait until the driving ban was lifted after the snow finished falling and set out for Old Town when the clock struck 4pm. This was one of my first stops. The roads were mostly cleared and I looked for ways to show the depth of the snow banks. Thankfully, this sidewalk on Washington Street was shoveled and I angled the camera to take in the height of the snow bank. I also thought the door with it’s flower served as a great foreground element to balance Old Town House standing in the middle of the road.
