*winter*

in
close-up mode

from the warmth 

of my home

inside looking out

zooming in

on all it has to offer

right outside

my window

the 

white on white

landscape

a monochromatic

palette

in shades of

nature

enhanced by

earth tones

of

winter gem green

the snow lay waiting

posed softly

as I focus

my lens

a 

snow globe

world

enhancing

texture

by

design

beauty

in

contrast

simply

*divine*

“I wonder if the snow loves the trees and fields, that it kisses them so gently? And then it covers them up snug, you know, with a white quilt; and perhaps it says "Go to sleep, darlings, till the summer comes again.” 

― Lewis Carroll, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland & Through the Looking-Glass
