snow flurries

  3. Beautiful photos of the snow. Here we have had less light flakes as we have been having a snow storm /blizzard most of the day. But tomorrow when it finally stops everything will look beautiful. Have a happy and peaceful end of the week Xenia.

    1. Thank you so much for your kind words dear Anne, I can imagine how beautiful it will look when the snow storm stops where you are 💙☃️ It has been the same for our friends who live a bit further inland and here on the coast the snow showers are a lot lighter. A happy and peaceful end of the week to you too 🤗🧡🐴 xxx

  7. This haiku has such a light, thoughtful feel to it (“each flake even softer / than it might be”). And the snow! The flakes almost appear as a star field, lending a celestial atmosphere to the images. How does Misty like snow? Most dogs I’ve known seem to love it and feel invigorated by it. She seems to have a serious expression on her face! 🙂 Finally, that last photograph…the snow and the grass, the distant, obscured hills and the low sky…it has a timeless feel to it. Enchanting. Thanks, Xenia, as always. 🙂

    1. Thank you so much for your kind words dear Cathy 💚 Thankfully we’ve only had light snow here on the coast and the worst of the cold spell has passed. Misty is quite excited by the snow, especially when it is still fresh and soft ☃️ Hope you are keeping warm and cosy too and much love back from us all 🤗💕🐕 xxx
