Winter can be a beautiful season. I have noticed that the older I become, the more I enjoy winter. I think the snow can be beautiful. It turns my neighborhood and my backyard into a winter wonderland. Of course, winter does have its downsides such as the cold, ice everywhere, and the absence of the sun on most days. I don’t think I could ever live in an area without snow or without winter. The perfect winter day is when it’s lightly snowing, the temperature is around 20-30 degrees, it’s bright outside not a dull gray and there is no ice on the ground to trip over.

I have been taking more pictures recently because I haven’t been using my camera as much as I should. I feel like these pictures capture what I really enjoy about the winter and the holiday season.
