melting snow sunrise - 106/365

Yesterday we had a crazy Spring snowfall of 6-8". We have had a very unusually dry winter so much so that the snow that fell yesterday was more than had fallen the first 3 months of the year. As the sun rose this morning it started to melt the snow on this stalk creating the beautiful droplets in to capture the magnificent sunlight.

 

I wanted to process this in color but could not get the snow to not look so blue, especially the snow in the shade. Anyone have any hints on how to fix it? I tried to warm it up but then the grass looked too yellow. So monochrome it is.
