We've had a couple of cold days, where it fluctuated between rain and freezing ice. Yesterday looked like a repeat of the day before. Dark, rainy and very cold. About three in the afternoon, the sun came out. It was still very cold - about 22 degrees outside. I had left the office to take my daughter to tutoring. On my way home, I noticed how breathtaking the landscape looked. The sun made everything look beautiful. The trees, plants and ground all sparkled as if they were wearing diamonds and silver. As soon as I got home, I grabbed my camera to see if I could capture that in a photo.
I have always found beauty and peace in landscapes. I try to take notice in the small things. A petal of a flower, while I plant in my garden. The strand of grass while I experience how it feels on my bare feet. The blueness of water under the sky while I sit on a sandy shore of a beach, feeling the ripples of water covering my feet. While I take joy in these things, I find peace during those times.
