Light on the Darkest Day
As the darkest day settles upon us, we look forward to the light ahead, shinning a little bit more with each passing day. We hope you can find the beauty in nature on this day and if not, Jill has put together a collection of photos that capture the light. Happy Solstice everyone!
Snow falling through the light, glitters like confetti in the brightness.
A cottonwood leaf illuminates it rich amber color in the frozen creek bed.
Sunrise on St. Joe. Rapid City, SD.
A breathtaking cloud hangs over our sourcing partners ranch, along the Rocky Mountain Front.
Solstice sunrise, pushes through the morning fog.
The buffalo, strong and tenacious, come into view through a winter whiteout.
Overnight guests (grandkids) enjoy the cozy spot - warmed by the fire and the sun.
Snow falling in the moonlight.
Ice crystals against the prairie sky.
Colton doing morning chores, hoping the sun will break the subzero temperature.
The buffalo move through the cold, clear water of the Cheyenne River, protected by their layered coats, richly colored in the the sunlight.
Cheers to brighter, warmer days ahead!
PS. For you Jill: I took my students to see an exhibition which is here in Grenoble now. I gave them a guided tour in English. The phoTOgrapher: Vivian Maier. Such amazing photos and such an extraordinary story as to how they were discovered and who she was. A street phoTOgrapher….you are a prairie phoTOgrapher!
Beautiful photographs.
A difficult pronunciation lesson for my French students: PHOtograph, but phoTOgraphy and phoTOgrapher
Continue to enjoy the beauty of this cold holiday season.
Thank you for sharing these photos. Beautiful.
Bravo pour ce travail magnifique ! Ces vastes paysages et les bisons me font rêver …
J’ai lu vos livres et ils m’inspirent beaucoup.
