Frosted and snow-covered

Early saturday morning I finally took the time

to photograph the frosted flowers

and flowerbuds in the garden.

Frosted...

and sometimes frozen...

Ice flowers on the windows of

the bird feeder in the tree.

And then saturday afternoon,

after a whole week of grey skies,

a bright blue sky appeared.

Nothing could keep me inside then

and although it was freezing cold,

I went for a walk nearby.

First time ever in the almost thirteen years

we've lived here now that the canal

froze over and could be walked,

played and skated on.

Saturday was a beautiful,

freezing cold but bright day.

And then came sunday.
No blue sky anymore
but a constant falling of snowflakes.
By the end of the afternoon,
the once frosty world was covered
with a fresh white layer of snow.

A beautiful ending of the weekend.

Bye,

Marian
