Roanoke Star

My company has a policy of every employee gets a holiday when it snows...how great is that? I'm the only employee though, and this policy was born a few years ago after I left a customer's house when a snow commenced and it took me 2 hours to drive about 10 miles home due to the panic stricken drivers crapping up the road. So now I leave all that chaos to them and I slip out somewhere more remote after the wrecks and abandoned vehicles are corralled.

 

I rarely go up here to the star but started picture taking play-time here this morning, a rather treacherous icy ride up the drive in my 2WD car but at least it kept everyone else away so I had the platform all to myself at sunrise. The star is cut off at midnight and all of the photos I have seen were illuminated, I sort of like it better off. Thought it looked cool with the sunrise glow in the background, this is but a single image with little done more than clarity and some vibrance. The orange glow is painting from the nearby tower's flashing light.

 

Took lots of snow pics today so will post them later.
