White Christmas


Sunshine
Snow laden yew tree branch,
dancing in the wind,
playing hide and seek
with the morning sun

  5. I wish you a very merry white Christmas Merisi!
    cold weather and snow are not my favorite things but you make me want to go to Schönbrunn - definitely - at this time of year. (i kept a wonderful memory of a Christmas spent in Salzburg some years ago)
    Keep warm with the mulled wine !

  7. What a lovely sight to wake up to this Sunday morning! It's sunny and in the 40's right now in Dallas. However, an arctic blast is set to arrive on Christmas Eve....who knows what that will bring! Peace and good cheer today, my friend. :D

  8. Thank you for all your good wishes!

    Maalie,
    I photographed this branch from high above, looking down, as the sun poked through the branches, wind and sun creating playfully moving shadows on the sun-kissed snow cover below.
