January Afternoon

On January 9, 2017 By Mike and Christy

Oh it’s still winter, but even on an early January afternoon you can feel spring inching ever closer. The shadows cast from the trees are still long. There is still plenty of snow on the ground yet change is in the air on this January afternoon.

  Thanks Roberto, it is quite nice how some plants keep their color even in winter just to liven things up a bit. Hope you have a great weekend.

A serene, contemplative scene. I’ve noted the sunrise has moved a few inches northward on the horizon – it’s returning!

Very nice! I love the flowing bisection of the photo by the frozen creek and bent, leaning tree.

Quite a contrast to our winter here in South Africa which is dry and pleasantly hot with 29ºC at the moment. i like the shades of red with brown in your picture.
