Photograph of Elizabeth West tending to a small snowman she is building. She stands at center on a slight uphill slope and hunches over facing the left. Her hands reach out to the sides of a small snowman standing on the ground to the left. She appears to pat the sides of the snowman. The snowman balances a piece of snow on its head. In the background, trees line the horizon. A tree at right is stripped of its branches. Someone casts a shadow into the lower right corner of the image.
