  4. What a lovely selection of complimentary photos in soft shades of yellow, pink and white. The catkins look especially pretty and the Flaker horses in their bonnets.

  5. Thank you for your encouraging words! :-)
    I have a hard time selecting pictures. All have that lightless pallor, even the "white" snow reflects but leaden sky.

  7. What lovely images. I'm always drawn to the icy chill of snow played off a gray sky. I hope your week is off to a good start. Have a wonderful day. Blessings...Mary
