I remember running outside into snow as a kid to make snowmen. Sometimes my mom would even bring out a little carrot for his nose and an old hat for his head, but they were far from snow masterpieces. What if that snowman was as big as a house? Or shaped like a gigantic skull? Incredibly enough, there are people who create such things, as you can see from this insane snow photoblog.
I can only imagine the time it takes to construct a huge Mickey Mouse head or the snow masterpieces of an entire train, but it sure is amazing to look at!
