What’s more magical, more festive, more innocent than seeing snow for the first time?

Here, her owner captures the look of wonder and delight as snow gently falls on Tilly’s face:

Using a Nikon D7000 with Tamron 70-300mm f/4-5.6, the photographer (who goes by tgibson12) was able to come out with a crisp image, freezing this perfect moment forever. If you look closely (zoom in on Tilly’s eye), you can even see a reflection of the photographer’s friend as he packs a snowball for the dog to chase!

this is a great image, love the look of the dog, very sharp.{magical}
What a fabulous photo! It is so expressive as well as being beautifully composed. Magical.
This is not the best photo in the world but I bet it ranks at the top of photos you will cherish for years if you are the dog’s “owner”. I now only have the photos… after nearly 15 years with one dog and 17 years with the previous dog… wish I had taken more.
