Frozen surprises
If you could capture the cold and paint it … what would it look like?
As warm as melting honey or as dazzling as a sun on fire?
From where I’m looking, -18 C looks just glorious!

You’ve captured the clarity of coldness, that’s for sure. Nicely done.
February 26, 2010 at 07:36
Spectacular shots.

Beautiful glowing sun on a winter beauty!
I’m loving the snow because of the humidity of summer
here.
Cheers and great captures.

the 1st pic is spectacular!

Every winter morning I wake up cursing the cold and then you come along and talk about how beautiful it is. You’re confusing me.

- 18 ! horrible ! we made it til – 14 and that was unusually cold for Belgium ! The picture is beautiful, but cold ! Our skies are grey and it’s raining cats and dogs ! But it’s “hot” + 7° !

It sure doesn´t look – 18! I´ve only experienced that once and it was enough.
Beautiful photo!

The upside of all your snow and freezing temperatures are these glorious sunshots
February 26, 2010 at 12:11
It really is…my goodness so breathtaking!
February 26, 2010 at 12:53
You have a gift, to see beauty and warmth in that temperature. “Warm Honey” is a perfect description of the sun. Stay warm!
February 26, 2010 at 14:24
Yes, absolutely gorgeous, but – for preference! – viewed from somewhere warm and comforting. Hot soup by a log fire, anyone?
Have a great weekend!
February 26, 2010 at 14:37
Great shot and lovely color. Winterlandscape can be so beautiful!
February 26, 2010 at 16:45
the sunset is warm enough to kill the freezing temperature!
February 26, 2010 at 16:49
Is that a lake? You did catch cold real good. LOL.
February 26, 2010 at 17:40
Your pictures are always so stunning and your words add to the beauty.
February 26, 2010 at 17:44
I love your shots of the cold, lit by the fire of the low sun. I spend time in the north of Canada for work, north of the Arctic Circle, and it is stunningly beautiful in winter.

Excuse me while I go put on a jacket and make some hot cocoa. As always, your photos make me feel like I’m right there.
February 26, 2010 at 18:42
It’s beautiful indeed! What a lovely contrast between the cold snow and the HOT sun!
February 26, 2010 at 20:37
This is beautiful! And I love the thought of catching the cold and painting it. Although I’m not sure what it would be, I’m sure it would be pretty.
February 26, 2010 at 20:50
LadyFi: Beautiful captures at the lake, so nicely captured.
February 26, 2010 at 21:06
Your frigid blue world looks a little warmer with that tinge of pink. Amazing photos.
February 26, 2010 at 21:08
Just beautiful – if a bit cold!!
February 27, 2010 at 00:39
Beautiful. Cold but beautiful.
February 27, 2010 at 01:30
well timed and very very beautiful shot….looks like sun has descended on the snow..
February 27, 2010 at 02:10
You shared some really lovely sights today. All your shots are very nicely done. Happy you could stop by for a visit today as well.
February 27, 2010 at 02:32
Vacker soluppgång! Och kall!

Breathtakingly beautiful – clean and pure.
I read your post about motherly crying. It is so true that young voices singing – or giggling – can set the tears flowing. Did you know that teachers exploit this? Why else do we have little angels lisping ‘Away in a manger’? but despite the cynicism that sometimes creeps in, having rehearsed the Nativity umpteen times, still tears spring unbidden . . .
February 27, 2010 at 10:08
somehow your photos make the COLD seem WARM!
February 27, 2010 at 12:19
spectaular!
February 27, 2010 at 15:36
Wow!!

Stay warm ….. please

LadyFi, you asked how I would paint the cold…It would be a thin bare brown branch on a field of silver gray. We are sweltering in California with a high 50 degrees today and a lovely rain. Thank you for visiting my blog. It is always a pleasure to hear from you.
Cheers from Chris

Hi, Lady Fi! I’m a new visitor coming over from BPOTW. I enjoyed my visit here so much! I am from Swedish ancestry…my paternal grandfather’s family emigrated to the Boston, MA, area in the early 1900′s. They were from Karlstad. I will be back…hope you get a chance to stop by, too.
February 28, 2010 at 01:16
Love that second shot … it looks so warm and lovely!
February 28, 2010 at 05:02
That is beautiful LadyFi. If cold looks like that, maybe I could get used to it! The colors are painterly.
February 28, 2010 at 05:04
beautiful pic…i am shivering in its awesome beauty…smiles.
February 28, 2010 at 11:58
That is very cold but so beautiful. I love the orange reflection from the sun.
February 28, 2010 at 20:48
Amazingly colorful sky over your wintry world!
Hugs and blessings,

Just a balmy winters day..you caught the sunset beautifully:)
March 1, 2010 at 06:06
How can we not try to capture these moments?
Stunningly perfectly wonderful.
March 1, 2010 at 15:59
Stunning photos!
Kanskje jeg kan skrive på norsk, jeg l merke til at du er lokalisert i Sverige? Takk for fin kommentar hos meg. Ja, det er hvor jeg bor, skjønt bildene er fra sentrum av Bergen og jeg bor litt utenfor

Beautiful! And cold looking.
