I don’t always get to see snow, but when I do, I am so happy to capture an image that depicts a winter day.
We still have some colorful autumn leaves hanging on for dear life, but wintertime is here!

Thanks! I had to fly to Washington State to get that shot, Robbie. Otherwise I have to drive 60 miles up into the Sierras for the snow.

I have only seen snow twice in South Africa. I saw a lot of it in South Korea and the UK but that is different.

This is an incredible winter photo, Terri, different from the usual and yet perfect for the season. Can’t believe it’s been taken with your phone – you should submit to Samsung – bet they’d love it.

Thank you, Shari! It was too cold to drag my regular camera along for the walk in the 29 degree temps. Had to take the gloves off, too, Brrr…the things we do to get a photo!

I agree with the other comments about that photo making a stunning Christmas card, Terri. Seeing snow on pine always looks refreshing to me. I can smell the clean, fresh air just by looking at the photo.

I’m happy you were there when it snowed, Terri. I’m still waiting to see my first snow of the season. Sometimes we have to wait until March until we see any. I read somewhere that the UK has had more White Easters than White Christmases.

I was lucky! How interesting about snow holding off until March…a white Easter, now that’s original…or is that fodder for one of your twisty stories? 😮

It could be, couldn’t it? But, no, it seems it’s a true fact about the British weather. ❄️🐣
