Snow in the desert? Strange but true. "It happens about once every five years or so," Stu Jenks writes from Arizona. "Warm moist air from Mexico collides with very cold air from the North, and bingo bango, we get snow on the valley floor of Tucson. The above image is of a dirt spiral just south of my apartment. Usually the spiral is kind of boring to look at, up close. (Works much better at a distance of a couple hundred yards from my bedroom window). But with a dusting of snow, the close up becomes quite fetching. This photo was taken a little after dawn on Monday."
More of Stu's spiral photographs can be seen on his website, his blog, and in the latest issue of the Mythic Passages web journal.
