Snow-Art

If you liked my post about the snow circles, you're gonna love this:







This is the work of snow artist Simon Beck. His drawings are very structured and geometric; very different from the free flowing snow circles by Sonja Hinrichsen. But they both use the same simple, yet laborious technique; walking around in the snow!

From afar Beck's drawings look almost 3D, how he manages to make the shapes so perfect is beyond me. Surprisingly, his main motivation for creating his drawings is exercise. 

"The main reason for making them was because I can no longer run properly due to problems with my feet, so plodding about on level snow is the least painful way of getting exercise. Gradually, the reason has become photographing them, and I am considering buying a better camera." - Simon Beck
