I'm so late for #SixOnSaturday (last week's 😆 ) that it actually lands just about on the right day again...lol
Last week, around the #Solstice was much colder than now, but beautiful with that #MidWinter #light and a touch of fresh #snow So, I'll wish a #HappyNewYear to all (really just another slightly mis-placed solstice celebration anyway!) #SniegaMate #SnowMother #Saule #Sun #pagan #animist #Alberta @nature #GetOutside #SolaceInNature

Festivities aside, it's a beautiful time of year here--wonderful #light, #contrasts #textures and a rich if restricted palette!
Here are a couple of recent shots of #SolsticeTrees (#ChristmasTrees if you like 😉 ) decorated by #Saule / #Sun and #SnowMother and #WindMother #pagan #Latvian #animist #Alberta #Canada #winter #GetOutside #SolaceInNature

@plants @nature #SevenOnSunday for last week- a warm week, well above average (avg is a few degrees below freezing) as high as low/mid teens C! Things changed on the weekend w/ a bit of #snow and dropping temperatures- this week has days mid *minus* teens to near -20, nights as low as -30C. Toasty in the house w/ the wood stove going- but that means I need to get out in the bush and cut more! (I harvest deadwood) #DeepFreeze #Winter #November #Alberta #GetOutside #SolaceInNature #houseplants

@nature #SixOnSaturday a #tree #frosty #leaves, a chickadee come to see what I'm doing standing in front of a tree( taking photos) and the frost #spirits, weather #LittleMothers have combined their efforts to lure me with a ring of promise on a branch- I saw the jewel, but left it, as one must!

The increase in activity and interaction here has been exciting- but I may not be able to keep up all the time! Looking forward to checking out more and more folks as time allows- to see what you're talking about, feeling, creating!
Meanwhile, trying to share some of the crazy beauty I see every day!
Now, to finish posting and get outside to enjoy the warm day + get more wood cut before my work week starts and it gets cold next week!

1-Bit of a depressing time- so much crap out there in so many ways! I'd like to just not think about it all sometimes-- and without pretending issues don't exist, I think it's good to have #reprieves -- to give time for #pleasure, for #positive messages, for the #healing #SolaceInNature . *But* also important to remember that some folks are denied those reprieves--

A few views from the last couple of days, out on the farm, mostly across the neighbours' (that's the direction I can see the #mountains and #sunset -looking West on the acreage or farm is all #forest)..
the view of the two tree tops could almost be autumn, with golden curled up leaves hanging on to the poplar.. the imposing cloud bank in #3 passed on by..

@snaptophobic I didn't find much plant/nature stuff right away, but after following a few people + seeing what they post and who they boost etc it has started to come together. I don't call myself a landscape photographer (and landscape is only one of my obsessions) but I do try to share some of the natural beauty I am in awe of every day #SolaceInNature
@plants @nature This is my #SevenOnSunday for last week- in spite of a few light snows and many frosts, still lovely late #Autumn views with #flowers, coloured leaves etc-- very different world out there today-- white and cold-- but that can come later..lol
