Another Blue Day

Woke up yesterday to snow and a blue world. Beautiful light and I am needing all the beautiful light there is, probably a lot of us are. And only another day to my favourite day of the year, the winter solstice. That's the true start of the new year for me. Every day more light.


branches wearing downy snow

St. Francis hiding behind the rhododendrons

a crab apple my Mum gave me looking as fine as she does in the spring wearing her halo of blossoms

An old pine who keeps loosing her head, still so beautiful

Looking over the roses, through the arch to my Mums crabapple

I love the shapes of the shrubs

The old apple trees at the front of the house

  3. Blue snowy trees, so different from my grey rainy city. And the quiet the snow brings, so necessary at this busy time of year.

    1. Thanks Margaret, I am seeing and hearing that England is having terrible weather. We seem to have settled into winter, a foot of snow over the past day, soft, fluffy stuff and very beautiful. Wishing you all the best for the holidays and New Year.

  6. How beautiful Liz - here in the UK we have endless days of grey rain with 500 flood warnings in place - maybe we really do need to build an ark!
