A vignette. A humble bird house on a field fence post. There is a light snowfall and a glimpse of woodlands behind the field.

The turn in a snowy forested northern road. The early evening sky glows peach above the otherwise muted scene.

A Québec tree line. Boreal woods backing on a snow-dusted meadow. In the absence of heavy snow cover, the landscape and sky rest softly in muted greys, forest green and red-browns.

Snowfall in the Gatineau Hills. A smooth field yields to a leafless tree line and large, forested hills. The gentle snowfall lends to a serene and monochrome ambience.

A brushy tree line and meadow grasses in front of a field. There is a light snowfall softly obscuring the wall of trees growing on the hill in the background.

A tuft of snow-dusted dried wild grasses and meadow flowers backing onto a field and woodland. The Gatineau Hills are partially visible through the soft snowfall.

Roadside wildflowers, winter edition. Dried meadow flowers against a wire fence. A snowy field and partial tree line, softened with snowfall, provide a peaceful backdrop.

She likes to relax at our kitchen window.
A little black squirrel relaxes on a widow frame. She is dusted with snow.

Summer memory
#sky #BlueSkyArtShow
An early evening view of the Ottawa River with soft focus and slight intentional camera movement to celebrate the pretty meadow. The sky is thick with clouds but the sun sits beneath them and shines on the visible sliver of river. A celebration of pastels.

A winter park. The park trees, leafless but for one small tree still adorned with burnt red leaves, stretch serenely into the mist. The curve of a road, a picnic table and a lamp post sit in silence with the trees.

A winter woodland scene. In the foreground, centre stage, the trunk of a majestic deciduous tree. One small coniferous tree lives in the background to the right and the rest of the woods are more leafless deciduous trees. All rest beneath a dusting of snow and embraced in the soft, cold air.

In the foreground are roadside grasses. Behind, obscured by the grasses, is a mowed field bordered at the horizon by a woodland. All is muted and dusted with snow.

A leafless elm stands naked and wild in a November field. Her bark is soft and silvery in the late day sun. A woodland traces the horizon.

A forest road in the early November evening. Shadowy and backlit; framed in the manner of an old snapshot.

A crow flys through a November evening forest. Double exposure. November tree line. A vignette; November branches. A crow flys against a boreal tree line. Intentional camera motion. Double exposure. Soft focus and edit to evoke the cool quietness of the woodland.

A small fire burns in a stone fireplace, its flames and those of one small candle burning in an amber coloured glass votive, are the only light. A serene Buddha rests illuminated in the warm glow.
