Beauty Underneath

I have to confess I haven’t been doing much photographing this winter. I don’t know if my age is catching up with me but my tolerance to the cold and wind has diminished this year. I still take the dogs everyday as I’m able for walks but for shorter durations.

It’s easy to miss winter’s special beauty though if you don’t really look. With the melting snow and carefully picking my way through icy patches, (after falling last week) looking down I again found the delight of finding the lovely intricate designs that ice can form. I was able to capture some really interesting images.

So when photographing, or even enjoying a winter’s walk, sometimes it’s not what’s around you but underneath your feet that deserves attention.
