Winter nature is very pretty and you did a great job of capturing it. Sometimes it's hard to really notice and recognize that when I don't even want to go outside because it's below zero temperatures.

I can understand that. It was very cold out there.

Those are such beautful photos & accompanying narrative. Perfect!!

Thank you. It was a little chilly out there.

Excellent photo, especially the frozen leaf. Thank you for sharing.
