Photography: Gentle Beauty Lingers in Winter (Part #2)

Thank you for sharing

These photographs are a continuation of the ones I shared the other day from our trip to the gardens in winter. Yes, in winter! I normally would have thought it a waste to bring my camera, but I was wonderfully surprised at the beauty that still lingers in winter. I know – many people enjoy snow and all that. Who doesn’t love going down a hill with a sled? However, I mean trying to find beauty even though the flowers are gone, and everything is a muted gray. It is there – just as I had silently hoped and I have pictures to prove it! Hope you enjoy these…
