Theme: Winter


Category: Landscapes

Winter can be an introspective and reflective time of the year. This is the season when certain activities slow down. Winter can be a time for hibernation, colder weather and shorter days. There is a certain quiet beauty that comes with this season and many photographers actually prefer this time as more of the surroundings are exposed. Submitted images should reflect this thoughtful time. Winter brings us opportunities that are unique and absolutely different from the rest of the seasons. There are so many unusual and unique designs that are available from the newly fallen snow and frozen water
