the year is going

Inspired (and awestruck) by Camille Seaman's magestic glaciers, I gathered a few icy-blue-and-white images for your viewing pleasure. The color scheme is an unlikely one for my place here, but I'm trying to broaden my horizons. And this Andrew Wyeth homage to my favorite seasons seems an apt accompaniment — and a lovely way to say goodbye and hello to years old and new:

I prefer winter and fall, when you feel the bone structure of the landscape — the loneliness of it, the dead feeling of winter. Something waits beneath it, the whole story doesn't show.
