The Dark of Winter

The Dark of Winter

 

The sun hangs low in the sky through winter, casting shadows and dark hues on our world. Days are short, nights are cold, and forests are gloomy. Winter’s cool, contrasting palette can have strong impacts on the human psyche, creating a sense of mystery and seclusion that often leads to introspection.

Some winter scenes can make us feel alone in the world.

Others can make us feel small.

Sometimes we come across things in the winter that make us wonder?

Snow intensifies the contrast of a scene in a way no other season can.

White over gray, green, and black can tell a tale of its own.

Even sunsets look different, when everything is calm and still.

 

When you’re out and about in winter, keep your eyes open! You never know what type of scene you may stumble across!
