Love the toning on this Oscar. I thought it was standing in snow till I read about the photo. No snow in Vicksburg that time of the year! #11749182

Thanks folks. Much appreciated. Bob, it was sunny and chilly when I took this photo but, you're correct, no snow. I over exposed a bit attempting to give it a faded look. #11749232
