This lovely wintry image is awe-inspiring in it's simple beauty and silence. It has got all! It is like a love song to winter with soft, white and untouched snow and in it's frozen splendor. A real gem full of the essence of winter. This really leads my thoughts to Christmas. Thank you for sharing your images. They always shine brightly not only in Xmas, but through the year. Merry Christmas, William. *V*
