Default All I see is white...

It's been a winter that doesn't seem to want to end. Breaking records every day for weeks now. We have had the ground covered in snow since early December and I'm getting stir crazy for something other than white to photograph. Anyone got some good ideas to spark my energy and photography juices? I'm out of ideas on how to make white snow look like something interesting.

I'm only 2 hours away from you in Cedar Rapids, and I did a little bit of that the day we got that 12 inches of snow:

Colorfully Cold

Made Front Page Explore Snowmen are fun too:

Yeah, I should figure out a way to sell my photos as desktop backgrounds. Probably have to add a logo or something. Maybe I'll pose that question in the Money section.

Do people buy desktop backgrounds? I don't.

Yeah, quick research says "No". There's too many free ones available, so no one would ever buy one.

I'm brainstorming ideas to make a little bit of money. I've set my sights on a 5DMarkII, and am trying to work my way towards it. I'm about half way there.
