Winter

Winter is finally settling in and I'm still getting used to all the changes.  Jack Frost now visits every night so I have to tackle Gandalf's windscreen with an ice scraper every morning. Gloves and a cute bobble hat are a must and my Dr. Martens are practically glued to my feet.  D and I exhale warm smoky puffs of air every morning and pretend we're dragons.  Sea mist creeps across the land in the morning but Winter also provides some beautiful sunsets that remind me that one day it will be warm again.

I'm never sure if I love Winter as much as other seasons, but it sure is magical.

I couldn't resist photographing Gandalf in the mist.  I've never really been interested in cars but I'm so attached to him.

    Ohhh, gandalf is your car! I thought it was some obscure lotr reference haha. These photos are amazing, there's certainly a beauty about them. It seems like it would be really quiet within the mist xxx

      Yeah, I thought she was going all English on me. The old Gandalf is acting up again, I'm totally Frodoed out.

      I genuinely laughed for ages when I realised how odd 'tackle Gandalf's windscreen' sounds when you don't know he's a car :'D Would have been even weirder if I didn't include my last photo of him!

      Sorry for confusing you guys, and thanks for the lovely comments! When I was taking the photos in the mist it was so quiet and eerie. There were no birds singing and I couldn't even hear any cars on the main road nearby!

    Oh my word. I love your art so very much. The first and last photographs are my absolute favorite and your words capture winter quite well. You car being named Gandalf... *high five*
    Honest though, keep up the photos. They're fantastic.

    These are lovely photos and your blog design has changed since I last visited. Looks lovely!!!

    Ah, Gandalf. My last car was called Aurora. I miss her. My new one doesn't have a name. Just boring old Yaris. I'm clearly not as attached :P

      Thank you! I'm really fussy about my blog's design but I'm finally happy with it. I wanted something relatively simple but colourful as well :)
