It has snowed and snowed and snowed here during the last few days, and all the fine melting work of the previous week has been undone. We are right back in the land of winter - if we ever really left it, and although I long for springtime, there are wild wisdoms here to be plumbed.
The snow is like popcorn, intensely blue, heavy with moisture and falling in clouds of huge fluffy flakes, filling the garden up in its whirling dance and seeming to give off its own clear light. Snow and wind go together hand in hand, and the north wind has been playing its own blithe games, sculpting artful drifts and slopes and even a spiral here and there.
It's the light that grabs me every time and in every season. No two snowflakes are alike of course, but who knew that they are filled with light?

The shadows on the drifts are beautiful. I love the beautiful designs they make. Almost looks like the wind is still blowing on them. And the last photo is my favorite kind. Simple beauty.
Ya'll must be getting the snow that we haven't received here in Tennessee this year. It was actually 74 degrees last week but alas this a.m, it is a crisp 25 degrees.
"wild wisdoms to be plumbed..." Oh yes... And dancing with the Light :)
Love the top pic with the light and dark contrasts all melded into one beautiful swoosh...
Beautiful photos! Thank you for the reminder of seeing the light and discovering that it is all around us.
Hi Cate
A lovely post. We got a bit but missed the bulk of the snow the rest of Alberta got but it is still a white world here.
