In past years, I've matched up the month with an appropriately themed photograph. For 2014, I will feature captures from my travels and most months will have two choices (probably because I couldn't decide which image I liked better). In creating this year's collection, it was fun to go back through my archives and relive those travel adventures.
For January, however, I decided to stay closer to home with two snow themed captures.
The first, taken one snowy Saturday morning last January at the University of Illinois' Japan House:
Most cities have lovely public gardens. The best time to visit in the winter is during a snowfall - the falling snow envelops the space with a quiet peace and sense of serenity. You can bet there won't be too many visitors, either.

This month's second image was taken at the barn where my daughter boards her horse. This isn't her horse, but one of the other magnificent equines who call the barn their home. I just love how furry they get during the winter months.

Wishing you a Happy New Year and a Big Welcome to 2014!
Wishing the New Year brings many blessing. I love the two images.
ReplyDeleteBoth of these are wonderful, Shirley.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for sharing them here.
Happy New Year!
Definitely downloading the horse image for my desktop -- but it was a difficult decision between the two. :)
