Shadows
Snow fell and blew as it almost always does here on Nantucket. It usually gets mixed with rain or gets very wet and becomes icy. Our snow on January 3, 2022 was no different though our fantastic little bit of snow on Christmas Eve 2021 was. There was no wind. It came down and dusted everything so that for those celebrating Christmas, we still had a bit on Christmas morning.
On January 4, 2022, as I walked into work at the Mitchell House, I noticed this shadow which I really have not seen before. Shadows obviously change due to so many factors but I have not really noticed this before and I have been here a long time. It is sharp and crisp and the light from the snow all around the island likely adds to its presentation. But in any case, I appreciated it for its beauty and simplicity. And I love how it looks like it’s another stair rail going someplace else.
