A white toque and I would have missed you 😨
James:
All without the red hat. Brings to mind a Christensen and Bev Doolittle camouflage paintings—have you any advice to offer concerning techniques and composition?
Thank you,

I'm afraid this round has proved too difficult for me.
Oh, I don't know- seems they are ALL imposters- except for the one
in the red hat. :>
i do not want to get into politics as such. As a German who has not seen snow for years, I always i understand why some people in the US consider climate change a myth.
It is just unbelievable how much snow you guys have.

You're a legend!
