What Winter Means to Me
Scott Thomas sets assignments to fellow bloggers/photographers. This one is all about winter, and what it means to us. This year, more than any before, winter means a new life.
People warned that the winters in Nova Scotia would be hellish.
England’s winters can be mild. Snowdrops push up soon after Christmas. No chance of anything green in Canada until May.
The cats would surely suffer. How could we uproot them?
But I knew it would be OK. I was ready. Winter is turning out well for me. I happen to like snow.
I like what it does to my garden. I can bundle up and be warm. I can hunker down inside and be cozy after a snowy walk.
It suits me.
The snow and the sea combined excites me.
In short, winter is OK by me. Winter in Nova Scotia is so far so good!
Sweetie I really think that lobster shot is a stunner and should be seen more widely. And the cat bum one too ! Glad you’re adapting. I’m finding this winter to be colder than the three previous ones …

Lovely pictures! The shapes in the ice are really neat and I had a good laugh at the retreating kitty.

These are gorgeous Lynne. You really must love winter to be able to capture its better side like this. I especially like the soft warm colors in the one of the rocks and lobster trap.

Your first close-up in b&w is vrey fine – and I like the colors, the composition and the snow coming down in the last one – a great shot!

The first image is my favorite. I love looking for ice in my backyard creek so this one struck the right chord with me. The shape of the ice brings the tips of a birds feather to mind. Great images!
