We’ve had a spate of white skies and snowstorms recently; but now and then, the sun bursts through in a wonderful explosion of blue and white.
This picture raised my spirits and I set it as my desktop picture so that I smiled every time I sat down at my computer.
Now you can do the same, if you wish.
Click the picture to see it in full resolution and then feel free to download it or transfer it to your computer to enjoy. (Just drag the full size picture onto your computer desktop.)

You always have a wonderful look at the world through your photos. This is a bright and cherry pic. Thanks for the a new desktop photo. I’ll download it now and remember to look at life a little brighter when I see it thanks to your. 🙂

I’m hoping to see some of that beautiful blue sky here today after a few inches of new snow last night. At least I’ll have your beautiful picture to come back to if our sun doesn’t shine today.

Stunning image! I agree with you on the beautiful sentiments of white and blue. The winter sun can come across almost as platinum, giving deeper shades of azure to the heavens and pale to the snow.
Love the quote.;)
