Dry snow and crispy air. This combination lured us from the house into the wild. Into the wildish
My camera screamed, refusing to be left behind. Unfortunately the sun was hiding behind the clouds, I would have loved a bit of blue between the white and brown, but my camera, famished as it was, ate everything anyway.
- The road ahead was clear.
- Moss and leaves, playfully connected.
- Trees, lifting their arms in unison.
- This looked more like a cemetery than a forest.
- Dutch feet.
- Though temperatures are below -15 C, this brook was still not frozen over.
- Then a dog came running past.
- My Dad will drool upon seeing this: he’s not a wood eater but loves to fire up his hearth.
- The lumber, closer up.
- The absolute highlight of the walk. I wanted to jump up too but kept calm and asked them if I could shoot photos in stead.
- Now I’m drooling: not as a horse eater but as horse lover.
- Trees towering over Vman.
- Once inscribed in small letters, now grown into a bigger font.
- A Dryad
- My eyes saw the head of a giraffe in the bark of this tree… please tell me you see it too?




























I think I missed the giraffe. Hehehe. Very nice photos.
It’s the last photo, Nandini, two eyes and a snout hehehe.
Oh yeah, just the head. Right, I see it now! I had started imagining the stripes. Hahaha. Funny how mind imagines.
Thanks.
It could as easily be a baboon, or an elephant. People at work immediately said it was a heart. But now I see mostly two elephant heads, pushed together. Imagination is wonderful!
Hmmm, no giraffe, but might just be the angle, wonderful snow play, Mar. Even the horses gallop with elegance, everything always looks lovelier covered in snow!
Snow has a bit of magic!
I think I see elephants as well. Great snow play pics. Looks like you were enjoying yourself.
BONUS…horses.
Much love,
Jules
We were, I love strolling through the trees. Even when the paths are a bit too civilized. Is there still snow in the US, Jules?
Love,
Mar
Great photos! The trees are so tall! And so are the horses!
The horses were so, so… aaaaaaaaaaaaaargh, they were magnificent!
I see the giraffe ánd the elephants
Maybe if we keep on gazing at this picture we can see a complete zoo
Nice pictures! Love the frost and snow…
Somehow I see a baboon too
Love the pics…dutch feet and leg warmers!!! I see an elephant.
And when you look at it in another way, there are even two elephants, Jeanne, trunk to trunk!
I see it too!
Nice post, Mar!
A bark’ing giraffe
Thanks for watching the photos, Nancy xx
