One of my favorite things about tall pine trees is the unique sound the wind makes while blowing through them. The clichéd phrase “whispering pines” is very appropriate.

Pine drops
Rainy days bring their own unique beauty to nature. Like these rain drops I discovered hanging from pine tree needles.

On a very cold day, the mighty sun will still melt snow, even if it’s just a few drops that freeze again.
Beauty in the gray
I like to call this time of the year the season of darkness. The hours of daylight are getting shorter and shorter. Everything is gray and brown, and there isn’t any snow on the ground to brighten things up. It’s all a bit depressing. But maybe I need to look at it in a different way. Take away the color, even from a gorgeous sunset, and there is beauty to be seen in the gray.
I should play around with black and white photography more.
Green still hanging on
Despite the fact that the majority of trees in my neighborhood have turned colors and lost their leaves, the maple in my backyard is still hanging on to most of its green color.
