Ball of fire

This scene was much too gorgeous to bypass. It’s important to stop sometimes and appreciate the bounty that graces our lives.

Return

Winter recently (and briefly!) returned, testing our resilience by throwing a few centimeters of snow at us. It created this beautiful scene.

Dawn puts a very pale  blush on the grey wood of an old barn.

Brush

A row of trees divides green winter wheat from a stubbled cornfield. Above, cirrus clouds brush grey and white across the early morning sky.

Burst

On a lovely morning, the sun bursts over the horizon. What a lovely scene.

Ground-ed

At ground level, visibility was near zero. This barn perhaps 100 meters away was invisible from the roof down.

Magic, again

Life is so full of magic, beauty. It’s good to stop, appreciate, give thanks for these seemingly small things.

Pastels

The extraordinarily delicate pastels of a late winter dawn rarely fail to catch my eye. At times I wonder whether I see colour more intensely than other people, or whether I pay more attention to seemingly little things like this. Whatever the reason, I am grateful for scenes like this.
