While the soft shadows you've captured on snow and ice are lovely beyond words, I can't help be feel grateful to be in snowless country!
ReplyDeleteEvening Shadows
It's amazing how minus three degrees can be so amazingly beautiful...
ReplyDeleteAh, you captured the glisten. The icicles strike me the most. I have some snow shadows today too.
ReplyDeleteWonderful shots.

ReplyDeleteIt's so wonderful light in the pictures and the snow is glittering (that is so rare)
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend -
Beautiful, but minus 3 ??? brrr...
ReplyDeleteIt has been cold here, too, but not quite that cold.
The icicles are beautiful. I forgot I had taken photos of icicles this week. Maybe I will post them separately.
Have a nice weekend, Robin.
In that swing of six degrees (-3° to +3°), you have captured the essence of pure beauty in the ice and snow. And beautiful shadows too! I have tired of winter due to the cold. Yet, the lovely snow keeps me going until the chirping of the birds when Spring arrives...
ReplyDeleteOoooo! Aaaaah! All sparkly and sweet! Is the first one abubble that froze?
ReplyDeleteFabulous photos!
ReplyDeleteThe first two photos are a beautiful insight into the magic of ice and love the sparkle on the snow in the last photo.
ReplyDeletedon't you love the 'diamonds' glistening? however I like seeing the snow photographed, I have a tough time since I don't own sunglasses.
ReplyDeleteToo much snow, Robin? Sweden is absolutely rainy this winter. No snow now and dreary time. I rather have the snow.
ReplyDeleteHappy Sunday & blessed week ahead.
Hugs,
/Cc girl
Your captures of shadows, snow and ice but especially the bubble are lovely!
