For I have known them all already, known them all:
Have known the evenings, mornings, afternoons,
I have measured out my life with coffee spoons;
I know the voices dying with a dying fall
Beneath the music from a farther room.

Really like this one, it looks so peaceful. And taking pictures from the inside when it's cold outside is so fun.
Janine- they were predicting a blizzard this time to (up to a foot of snow and really windy), so all the schools didn't want what happened last year to happen again and decided to give us a snow day, which ended up being pretty pointless.
We dont get snow. it drops below 50 and you have mass panic. and major winter storm alerts. texas does not do snow. never really had it.
yes moondance is my little love, he is very sweet. thank you for the kind words towards him

Thanks all for the comments !
Janine, It's good to see you made it through the storm and Virgil too I suspect.
It's funny you mentioned my camera.
It is actually an older model Canon Powershot 520; not a lot of bells and whistles with that one. I try to compensate with the natural light I'm given and the framing of the shot. Mother nature takes care of the remaining 90 percent.
Don't sell yourself short, that first photo of the tree is very intriguiging and illusory.
I like that one quite a lot.

Thanks Gilliatt. I have a Canon, too...it's new this year...it's actually 12MP. Before that, I had and still do have an Olympus Camedia - only 1.3MP, but it really took good pictures; especially closeups.
I actually have to do more work with the higher pixel camera, because of knocking the file sizes down for the internet. I bought the Canon, because my son has one and their photos always turn out great. My son has higher end cameras, too, but he said he usually ends up grabbing the little Canon (so lightweight) when his daughter does something cute. My camera is red; what color is yours?Typical woman question.
Thanks for the compliments. I though that first one came out sort of neat, also. I think the glass was fogged up and that is why it's difused like that. Bare branches and the patterns they make are always good subjects. I noticed in your first photo just how heavy those branches are with snow. It's a wonder they didn't break off and block the roadways. That can be really hazardous. It happened about 25 miles north of my house; trees even came down. My friend said it was like a huricane. I am glad we escaped fairly unscathed, although now the plowed mounts of snow are problematic. I had trouble pulling out of the driveway today; kept scrapping one. AND I heard a rumor that more snow is predicted for Tues night into Weds...ekkk...that will prove more difficult yet.

Scented Letters, I am greatly impressed with you photos. They are truly amazing. The dogs hairs are so distinct on the last one. These do look so professional. Sounds like you have a high end camera. You really have an eye for good composition and design.
and..Thanks for the compliments, Mary.

Gilliat, Steph, Janine, Scented Letters, awesome, stunning, beautiful. Thanks for sharing your little corners of the world.
Your horse is beautiful, Stephanie; I would have loved to see him trying to eat the snow and then getting it up his nose.
Janine, I love that you took all the pictures from the windows of your house. I loved looking at your neighborhood through your eyes.
