Winter Breakage pt. 2

In celebration (?) of the storms that have been burying the midwest here’s the remainder of the photos of my blizzarding experience in New York City. As I was reviewing these photos I was wondering if there was anyone in NYC getting married and how fantastic their wedding photos could have been with the quality of light and the snowing flying off of buildings. That is, if they were willing to even step out of doors. If you got the bride outside you would have about .873 seconds to capture all the photos, because that wind was merciless and would make quick work of any styled hair and could quite possibly rip a veil right off. Oh, and if you have a particularly resilient bride she might survive another 3.4 seconds before freezing to death standing there in just her wedding dress. But, you know, loss of limb due to frostbite and possible hypothermic death is a small price to pay for stunningly magnificent wedding photos. Right? Good. I’m glad we’re in agreement.

Best of luck to all of you around the country that are digging out of your icy enclaves. I think I’ll go for a run. But if you’re still stuck inside you can kill about another two minutes by checking out my first blizzardly post. (I wonder how many other nonsense tenses of blizzard I can use: Blizzardest, Blizzardish, Blizzardesque, Blizzardable, Blizzardic, Blizzardi (plural), etc… gotta get em in now, because I might never get to experience or write about another blizzard. Ever.) I’m not done with The Big Apple, because the sun did come out and turn the snow into deep dark puddles at every corner, so per usual, there will be more photos. See you in the funny papers!
