And when I did, I realized that the winter world wasn't devoid of color, but was simply wrapped in sweet subtle tones that inspire stillness, reflection and if allowed, a moment of peace.
Spring will come with her promise of sunshine, lush greenery and showy flowers to adorn earth's fair head. But for now, I've surrendered to the vision of a crystalline clear lake under the afterglow sky which faded to reveal a crown of winter stars. Sleep well, have peace.
Paddling near the ice rim
Trees, as though etched in charcoal reflect in the icy water.
Cattails silently observe the mountain in the lake.
Afterglow framed in ice.
There is beauty in winter. Looks like you found it. Lovely photos.
ReplyDeleteYes. I did this a couple of years ago. Fell in love with hoar frost, actually. But not this year. This year, for some reason, the winter held no romance for me. The problem is in my soul, of course. Too much learning and futzing with computers. or something. That afterglow is really something.
