"Vision is the art of seeing what is
invisible to others"
Jonathan Swift
I feel a chill in my bones..
November has cast its somber mood..
bare branches reveal a naked landscape.
A feeling of loneliness grips me.
A whole new world seems to have
moved in overnight.
The first snow..
the long period of Nature's apparent dormancy has arrived.

So pretty! Our trees are still holding on to their leaves, but I do notice more bare branches with each passing day. Does winter make you sad? I love the winter. I love the bare branches against the gray sky. I'm not too crazy about very cold weather, luckily we don't have it too bad here. A few nights a year in the teens, a few in the 20's. But I like it cold in some respects - it makes the garden bloom better! I'm back to work tomorrow - aargh! So nice to have had this past week off!
Anna, these are really beautiful photos. You definitely captured the winter season that's about to fall on us. Have a great week! Pamela
Every season has it's beauty, the trees shed their party dress and show their bare souls to the world and for this honesty, winter festoons them in diamonds and white,white snow.
Arija:Your words are poetry
I always like visiting your blog regularly; but these pictures are ones that I enjoy the most.
We also had a breezy chill - and snow this morning that is nearly gone this afternoon. I did not get any photos as beautiful as yours.
Beautiful reflection. Ih hope this winter you will find joy in the beauty around you.
Beautiful reflections. Winter is here. Valerie
Beautiful pictures!
Have a nice Advent Season (do you have "advent" in Canada like we have???)
Hugs, Monika
Monika:
To observe "Advent" the season before the coming of Christ I suppose in my country is a personal choice.In Canada we are so multi-cultural and so many different religions choose their own celebrations. As a Christain, I do celebrate the true spirit of Christmas Dec. 25th as the day Christ was born.
To you I say may the period of Advent leave its rich blessings in your heart and those you love.
Such terrific images! November is almost over and December is almost here. Wishing you joy!

Hello Nature girl and thank you for stopping by my blog!
These are stunning pictures .. the naked trees and their reflection in the water is so beautiful!
Yes .. my lavender is hanging in but I am hoping for a little blanket of snow to tuck them in for the winter!
Joy : )
Gorgeous reflections!! We have the first snow here, too! I am hoping it will melt again...
Beautiful pics! I find it amazing how the weather can play on my moods. I used to get so excited with that first snowfall ~ not so much anymore.
Stay warm in knowing that you have friends who care :)
'love & hugs from afar'
Just beautiful!!
Beautifully written Anna. You have captured the desolate feeling of winter both in words and pictures. Yet there is something so hauntingly beautiful about it all. Hugs, twt
