Oh! I never thought I'd be in a photography category. I feel so honored. I love the way the snow sits so neatly on that fence. Fallen snow makes the most beautiful shapes and textures that only nature could create so beautifully!
The capture of snow flakes is so wonderful, they make such a beautiful pattern
Well, you could knock me over with a feather! Like Elizabeth, I never imagined in my wildest dreams I'd get a mention in the photography section! But thanks so much - I am truly honored.
(And your fence photo is amazing - the contrast between the sturdy iron fence and the delicate white crystals - pure beauty!)
How surprised and delighted I am to find myself chosen on your list :) Thank you for the recognition and honour Hilary! I will check out your other choices which I always find enjoyable.
Your photo of the fence is so effective, with the soft white flakes resting like scalloped pillows on the darker hard wired frame. It reminds me how a gentle cool touch can soothe a furrowed brow ~
whoo-hoo (tripping the Light Fandango)!! See my happy face? wow Hilary, what an unexpected and delicious surprise - thank you so much. And here I came in feeling all glum and hard done by after my root canal work, too.. thanks for completely restoring the shine back in to my week!
Your eye has captured yet another wonderful gem, beautiful. I can't believe you are still in the throes of winter - brrrrrrr..
What a lovely early spring or late winter image - it shows the snow is now fragile.
Congratulations to everyone, I am sure all these pieces are superb.
Have a lovely day my dear friend,
xoxo
I love repeating patterns and this is a good example.
Lovely fence. I have a thing for fences....
I liked your snowy photo Hilary. It looks so fresh and invigorating - Dave
Thank you for this once again wonderful links to inspiring bloggers!
And thank you for taking up my suggestion of Louciao's post about Alberta County. I am still smitten by those images!
A wonderful week to you,
Merisi
May I suggest to your readers to also have a look at Louciao's previous post about Alberta County, A Sunday Drive? Images of Canada that are simply gorgeous.
Cheers,
Merisi
Just spent an hour reading all your winners, Hilary. Great choices. Now must move, find some heat and defrost my fingers. Will this wretched winter ever cease? XX
nice..love the fence pic...kinda glad we are done with snow though...congrats everyone!
Wow! Thanks, Hilary!
I'm getting quite a lot of mileage out of that story!
Beautiful collection of blogs. Congrats everyone!
Congrats to Shrinky on her wonderful tale!
Oh goody... I haven't seen any of these so am off to visit! Love the snow on the fence, the way it piles up on top of itself. Thanks Hilary!
Wasn't that snowfall incredibly beautiful?
And Hilary, I look forward to this. Even if I don't always get around to commenting everywhere. You are so giving to do this.
W00t! Congrats all! And some of my peeps are in there!
A simile fence when decorated with snow is so pretty.Thanks for sharing this lovely images.
Blessings,Ruth
gorgeous snow pattern :)
After finding a few puzzling comments in my inbox this morning congratulating me on receiving a POTW award, I eventually discovered your blog. And I'm delighted that I did! I feel like giving one of those long and tear-choked acceptance speeches, but will simply say thanks to you and Merisi.
And apart from the award, I'm looking forward to being a regular visitor here.
(BTW: I live in Albert County in the maritimes, not Alberta.)
:-)
Some nice posts, I ahd actually been to a few already. I knew i might catch your eye with that fat cat, Sicily.
Hilary, thank you so much! I am honored to be mentioned with such great company.
I love the lacy V patterns in the fence. You manage to capture the most common sights and make them magical.
Thank you, Hilary. It such an honor to make your list. :)
pretty but i must admit i'm tired of snow want colors
V for victory - I like the composition.
Why thank you for that mention .. that's George a friend's cat and that's her lamp as well ... never have seen that lamp shade on straight, George loved to stick his nose into the light!
The picture of the fence with snow cuddling in each space is awesome.
I will take time tomorrow to check out the blogs you recommend. Fighting off flu, whine.
Oh how I hate snow, I want it to go.
It's been around way to long, it's time to warm up so people can walk around the beach in a thong.
Is that wrong, to want a new song.
Or season whatever the reason.
Nice pic though and off I go
Delightful snow fence pattern photo.
And thanks for the shout out!
I love that fence shot!
Off to read the POTW! :)
I love that link fencing with the snow. Really great photo.

Very beautiful Hilary.
Thank you for including my "living history" as a POTW!
This blog is one of the BEST on the web- what a pleasure to visit here, and to be mentioned as well!

Even though I'm tired of snow, you have given a lovely image and a smile to my frozen face!
That is sublime! Thanks for lifting up these posts.
Thanks for all you do, Hilary.
Thank you, everyone. It's so nice of you to stop by, support the POTW bloggers and leave me such lovely comments. You folks are great!
Another load of wonderful reading. Thanks!
Love the snow in your photo!
Hilary: That fence reminded me of school days as a kid in Mid-West Winters! So many great blogs here to visit and enjoy too!!
LOVE the snowy fence!!!
I love the delicate snowflakes against the hard metal fence. Beautiful!
I love the natural 'basketweave' look to the otherwise industrial chain link.
Thanks so much for your 'strengthening' comment on my 2-22 post...means a lot to me.
Snow can make anything elegant, can't it?
I hope I get time to read all the POTW - I've been scrambling lately. I did read Shrinky's - wonderful! Congrats to everyone!
Oh yes, wasn't shrinky's post a hoot? I have a favorite dead tree too, and every time I pass it I feel that tug of anxiety it might not be there anymore. Yours is beautiful!
Each V supporting the other, yet individually, they reveal an elegant depth of field, with a stage of crystals on display.

i think your fence looks like tiny hearts waiting to be loved before they melt.....
Love the shots once again! Your perspective of the cardinal in the shrub is wonderful. The sunrise shots are gorgeous, and the shot of the cat on the snow is so cute!
