There’s something so stunning about the bright red against the backdrop of snow. It makes me think of a huge picture of beauty framed by the stark whiteness of snow. Wonderful!
Beautiful! You’re still there. I don’t know if you remember me from Living in Stigma my blog. I’m from Canada, just to refresh your memory. I’m still glad you are still posting, I seemed to have stopped in Oct 22. Life has been tough. In January 1993 my husband died suddenly of a heart attack and I have been somewhat of a mess. I haven’t written anything and seem to spend my days if a depressive fog. Right now I am in the hospital ( since Nov 7, trying to get over my first Christmas without him). I miss our chats. I just posted an article and hope to do more, Miss you, Deb
I wondered what happened to you and knew that your silence was not a good sign. You are on my prayer list so I pray for you every morning and wondered about you and assumed you were back in the hospital. But I never dreamt your husband died suddenly. How horrible!! I am so very, very sorry. I know you said he was so understanding. This is what I fear the most. I cry about it constantly. So terrible!! Well, I continue to pray for you extra now that I know the story. My heart goes out to you. May God give you some piece. Thanks for writing. I didn’t see your new post. I’ll look again. Best wishes for some relief from suffering.
How I like the red stems of derain in winter. They are very decorative.
But red berries on the snow are associated with splashes of blood. A feeling of tragedy.
it’s beautiful🤗❤️

The stark contrast of colors on the canvas of the snow is striking. 🙂

Thank you, Nancy, for your input… interesting as always!

So pretty, the berries in the first photo look like rubies set against the white snow. I wonder if the second one is wild dogwood.

Thanks, Julie, I don’t know what dogwood looks like. 😊🙏🏽

These are beautiful. Much like red cardinals backdropped by snowy scenes, these subjects really “pop” here!
