Mother Nature’s Art

When there is a weather forecast that includes freezing rain or snow or simply freezing temperatures, I’m all set, so is my camera.

A vernal pool is a wonderful canvas for great artwork.

Freezing temperatures and moisture, a magical mix.

Mother Nature has created an ear worm! I’m hearing, “earth below us drifting falling” and the music going through my head.

The yoga studio, three days a week, and loads of opportunities to capture artwork by Mother Nature. During normal times at least.

And the work she does, coating her precious trees with silver and diamonds is stunning.

A jumble of grass becomes something exquisite.

The strokes of a brush filled with diamonds. Spells cast by the best of artists.

Intrepid Daffodil

In the garden today – the intrepid daffodil. Sending fingers up to test out conditions. Or perhaps their bulbs are sending up periscopes to see if it’s safe.

But for Daffodils things are just fine. They can take most anything. Even snow in late March.

Tough as nails they stand up to wintery conditions. Surprise ice and snow in mid April? No worry. The daffodils say, “Bring on spring! We’re READY!”
