Day one for winter serenity. Here are a few, some from places where snow is unexpected, but interesting to see when it happens.


These are great. Although our neighbor has some cacti in her yard that survive the winter, your snow cactus surprised me.

Joe,

Are you starting a weekly challenge?

I would love to participate here but 70 degree temps do not give the impression of winter. I will have to see what I can come up with or perhaps wait for next weeks challenge.

Dodie


If you have serenity there, show us something. Even if it's winter, you still have shots - except the weather is much better. Everybody can participate!

Taken in march just after the "Blizzard of '93" with my trusty old Pentax K1000. He was a very large German shepherd, and he is standing up in this picture.


Looks like he was really having fun - and it's an awesome shot

Here are three. The first was taken nearly 60 years ago, the second about 25 years ago and the last recently.

They were taken in Lucerne, Switzerland; on Goose Lake trail in Anchorage, Alaska; and in my yard.


Sure beautiful, Br. 🤍🤎🤍🤎🤍

Joe, this is a wonderful start. I especially like the number one and seven photos. Walking around in the winter always seems quieter than other seasons. I'll try to gather a few of my examples to post.


Thanks for commenting I think if there is snow covering the ground it muffles the sound - but then again, my degrees are not in acoustics 😯😯😯

You taught me something with your gorgeous shot 🌵🌵🌵🌵🌵: Cacti are okay in the cold I guess there's nothing stopping me then from planting a cactus in my back yard and just leaving it... 🌵
