We definitely do not get the winter’s like we use to, we received 6 inches of snow so I figured I would get some photos before it melts away.
It's that time again :) When winter days are brooding and dark, I look outside and my magical Witch Hazel is blooming again to bring cheer to January days in my garden. The rhythms of nature are so comforting when all around seems chaotic and depressing. I treasure this weird and magical flower!

Just back from a quick trip to Grand Teton National Park. It was so beautiful there. However, it only stopped snowing for short periods. We only saw the sun for a couple of hours in 4 days! The mountains never fully showed themselves. But it was fantastic! The wildlife was everywhere and the snow was incredible. In many places such as this, the snow was really to high for me to see over if I wasn't in the truck. Here I kind of put the camera over the mound of snow and prayed I would be able to get it while standing on my tippy toes. It was a true winter wonderland. Just what I was hoping for.
Will catch up with everyone as fast as I can. Can't wait to see what I missed. Hope you are all having a wonderful week!
Winter solitude –
in a world of one color

Winter in the city park. Krasnogorsk, Moscow region.
Nature, a gazebo, a forged iron tree with newlyweds' locks - in the snow. As a bonus light and shadows.
This little chickadee was waiting patiently to fly over to one of the feeders in my yard.

Thanks everyone for your views, awards, comments, invites and faves.
No shadows, no sky, bland, mostly empty, without showing much of anything.
This photo gives much detail, not in the visual sense, rather in an emotional.
I paired this desolate cold beach with my plastic Bell& Howell miniature camera and Portra 400 film. A digital camera just could not bring out the emotions as well as a $4.00 plastic camera and Portra. I shot with both and the DSLR was just reportage
The mountain of Vestrahorn is a majestic site near Hofn in Iceland that's a must visit on many photographer's lists. We visited in March near the end of winter when the mountain was still covered in snow. I feel this is quite a nice time to visit as the stark white snow contrasts nicely with the black sand beaches and the yellow grassy mounds.
When I first saw pictures of this place I had always thought the mounds would be quite small, maybe about knee high, so it was quite a surprise upon arrival when I saw that most of these mounds were much bigger and taller than a person. Therefore I tried to help capture the scale of the place by incorporating some of my fellow photographers into the shot. There are actually 6 photographers in the picture :)
