Absolutely gorgeous!

Depending on where you are, the snow can be tangerine coloured thanks to the colour spectrum of the street lights.

Back before amalgamation, the old City replaced all of its roughly 35,000 remaining incandescent lamps with white spectrum metal-halide, but there was a lot of yellow sodium vapour in the City, and throughout the suburbs. Alas, the colour spectrum of lighting has never been embraced as a design issue in the amalgamated city even though it has a big effect, especially where the light is not supplemented with bluer-spectrum sources such as storefront windows.

excellent analysis!

Beautiful!

This is my favorite one yet Jerry!!
