Frostography

This winter hasn't been particularly snowy but it's had its deep-freeze periods.

Below are a few photos of some frost patterns on one of the bedroom windows, as well as a few random scenes from around my local park. All quotes are attributed to poet Robert Frost - in honour of my frost-covered window, of course. Please click on each of them to enlarge.

"Some say the world will end in fire, some say ice. From what I've tasted of desire I hold with those who favor fire. But if it had to perish twice, I think I know enough of hate to say that for destruction, ice is also great and would suffice."

"In three words I can sum up everything I've learned about life: it goes on."

This is the same ball which appeared in my Mellow Yellow post last month. As time went by, the wind moved it along the surface of the ice and rotated it enough to show off its aqua side.

"The artist in me cries out for design."

"The woods are lovely, dark and deep. But I have promises to keep, and miles to go before I sleep."

A female Mallard kept a watchful eye on me while foraging for her breakfast. You can see the water droplets on her feathers and a bit of grass in her bill.

"Two roads diverged in a wood and I took the one less traveled by, and that has made all the difference."

"The old dog barks without getting up. I can remember when he was a pup."

A couple of weeks back, this adorable 11 week old Husky pup, ran off yelping after some other little bully of a dog (coughBennycough) snarled at him. His owner carried him past the troublesome JRT.

"There never was any heart truly great and generous, that was not also tender and compassionate."

"You can't get too much winter in the winter."

Like I said, we haven't got much snow but that doesn't stop the kidlets from getting what they can out of it.

"Happiness makes up in height for what it lacks in length."
