Wednesday Walk- Make Me Smile - A Winter Wonderland...

in #wednesdaywalk5 years ago (edited)

Winter was kind of thrown upon us bringing the cold but also the beauty of a snowy landscape.
We bundle up on the cold snowy days and get Bruno, our dog, (and ourselves) out for a walk.
I love the winter wonderland the snow creates in the forest and field around us.

Heavy Snow Covers the Willows and Creates a Tunnel Over Our Lane

Once the skies cleared the scene became even more beautiful with the expansive sky!

There was massive icicles starting to form on the sun room roof.

Early the next day we were greeted with a fabulous sky scene upon climbing the hill.

That evening as my husband walked the dog off into the sunset heading for home I turned around and found the moon rising as the sun was setting so I had to grab some pictures!

It was crystal clear so I took the chance to get some close ups of the moon which was a half moon. This made the details of the craters on the surface of the moon really stand out on the edge of the shadowy side. Have a look!

Lovely! Growing up in Michigan I miss the snow, as I live in Oregon and we rarely get it. Last year however, our wee little town shut down for almost a week as we received 3 feet of snow in about 6 hours. Thanks for sharing your #wednesdaywalk

Wow! You really did get a dump of snow! And when you are not accustom to getting much that can sure throw you for a loop!
Hopefully it won't repeat itself again this year!

Oh wow. What wonderful photos. Must be cold but sure is beautiful

Oh my goodness, you really did get an incredible amount of snow! I love it when it adheres to all the branches that way. It looks so puffy. What a lovely winter wonderland!

The early snow is always so pretty. By January, I find it loses its appeal... LOL

Snow on spruces is just lovely. :))

Cool photo of moon rise and sunset.

I hear you! I start getting pretty tired of it by January too!
It helps since I've developed a keen interest in photography and also that I have my indoor garden to retreat too!

Winter wonderland is such an apt description such a beautiful post

Thanks for joining Wednesday Walk :)

I love looking at snowy scenes! And you definitely have a lot of snow!
We have about an inch on the ground now... started snowing again early this morning.

Yes, it is the season when you start to expect the snow but it really was kind of thrown on us this year!
Well I make my adjustments and carry on, appreciating the beauty it brings and how clean it makes everything look plus I know the cold will be knocking out a lot of the pests we had in the garden so it's a matter of keeping warm and waiting to see what next year will bring!

Stunning the snow makes things look so amazing! None here in the UK yet although think it's dropping below 0 this weekend so hopeful wont be long; fed up with all the rain now 💯🐒

Wow! Winter sure did arrive, didn't it? Beautiful shots of a gorgeous winter wonderland!

Wow, you already have heavy snow this early of the month, but it's really are gorgeous!

Absoulute Beauty 😍
That Tamarack is pure love 💯💕💕

Happy Winter 🙏
