THE FIRST MAJOR SNOWFALL 

After two days of persistent snow, today the sky is clear and the sun shines on a winter wonderland. I put on my high winter boots, grab my binoculars and camera and embrace winter. The beauty of fresh snow draping the landscape penetrates my soul. I wander through the woods and am met by a constant parade of images. So today, I present you with 'winter'. Dress according to the weather and enjoy the spectacle of this special season. It is calming and brings solace in these challenging times.

Yours in nature,

Marlene

Wow. Love those unusual icicles under to log! Wonder what caused them to form like that? Great photos as usual :)

Whose footprint is this? and whose silhouette is this? You can imagine so many mysterious stories happening in a snow forest.

Marlene, thank you for all this,

from a person whose country was not blessed with any snow at all.

Every day as I walk and explore, I find new nature gems. Even the same route yields discoveries. The more I train my eye to 'really see', the more I 'see', just as ideas generate more ideas. Be open to the natural world; it is full of wonders.
