More Winter Beauty

Today I want to show you a few more shots taken when Steve and I were out the other day.

This first picture shows part of the lake. It is on the right hand side,frozen and covered with snow.

The lake is mostly surrounded by trees and on this day they were gorgeous.

As we walked along,I spied this dried up Tansy.

I liked how it looked with some snow on it. Come summertime,it will produce those bright yellow button flowers.For now the snow is it's only adornment.

This trio of stumps caught my eye as well.

The hoarfrost covered trees make a great background.

When we get a hoarfrost,every little stem and plant turns into a piece of loveliness.

Here are those three stumps again,from a different angle.The bulkiness of these stumps stood in stark contrast to the lacy looking trees.

Winter does have a lot of beauty,even though there is a lack of colour.

The grasses and small plants bring in some colour to give a little contrast.

In Psalm 147:16 we read;

He spreads the snow like wool and scatters the frost like ashes.

On this day this verse came to life for me.Indeed the snow covered the ground like wool and the frost clung to everything like ashes.

Thanks for joining me on this walk.
