Yes! Gorgeous! It’s like 50 degrees around these parts. I’d rather OBSERVE the chilly pics than experience them π m
You know, I think I have made you think I am EXPERIENCING all this beauty, here, now.
Sighs.
Actually, these shots are from last winter. It was great. Really. I loved every minute of it and took zillions of gorgeous memories in photos.
However, this winter has been non-productive, so far. We expect 2 or more inches of rain next week. Period.
I am fine with that. Jen has reminded me to accept all as from God’s hand.
What? I don’t get a bit of winter this year? Okay.
But I do enjoy what we did get, to the full. Over and over.
Glad you are enjoying it, too. π
Thanks, MM, and welcome to Home’s Cool! I really have bent the interpretation, I think, but WILL post more of these shots. π
Please stop by and visit any time!
Hello, Gilly, and welcome to Home’s Cool! I hope you enjoy your visit and return many times! π
Thanks for this compliment and do not worry–there will be more! π
Wow… I clicked on the photo to get a larger version (I am on a laptop) and I was treated to the beautiful details in his photo… the snowflakes look like crystals… the clarity is superb.
Hello, Maggie!
(Maggie is one of my favorite names!)
I do love the way these turned out. It was a great surprise to blow them up, for me, too. Love this little camera and how smart it makes me look! π
HOWEVER . . . it is not snow. It is crystals! As you view the shot, north is to your left. A soft north breeze was blowing fog into the area at exactly the moment of frostpoint and caused these frozen fog crystals to form on the sides of everything that was small enough to be thoroughly chilled. Like pine needles would be, and grass blades, and fence wires. It was a sight!

This is cute! It amazes me how each of us interpret the theme differently!

Hello, Jake, and thanks for your kind opinion! π
“Homes Cool” yes very! I like that.

Oh, Dear! I am so glad I could add cheer to your day. That is a privilege. π
Love the disregard for the prompt – and the picture. Lovely π
Hey! I regarded it! I used it several times in the post! Right! π And thanks so much for your generous opinion! π
nice interpretation
Thanks, Amar. I felt like I was cheating, though, as I can make any title fit any type of writing.
Ha ha – clever
Thanks, Jo, and welcome to Home’s Cool! I have had fun with this, I admit! π
