Thank you kindly for reblogging!
Very nice winter scene!
Thank you, Mike!
Happy Solstice, Eliza!! 🔆
What a beautiful photo!
Thank you very much, Betty!
What a beautiful scene. I can just hear the sound of snow crunching under your feet.
I’m heading out on my first ski trip of the season this weekend and can’t wait to see the snow!
Thank you, Celia. Have a great weekend playing in the snow!
Beautiful photo Eliza! I love how you captured the sun held in the arms of the trees. Wishing you a wonderful and peaceful winter season. Blessings to you!
Thank you very much, Sarah. Wishing you the same in this beautiful season of Light. ❤
What a beautiful area to call ‘home’ and to enjoy all nature has to offer.
Thank you, Alice. I truly believe I live in paradise. 🙂
Thanks for sharing this beautiful scene to celebrate the new season!
Thank you, Micheal. The tide turns… 🙂
And to you Eliza – what a stunning photograph to celebrate the most wonderful time of the year! Daylight increases, Spring in in our sights! Happy Solstice!
Thank you, Sandra. Onward to spring! 🙂
This day is more important to me than Christmas. I really am a pagan at heart! Beautiful photo….
Thank you! It is definitely a happy day in my book. 😉
Such glorious light for solstice! You bring so much light Eliza with all the beauty you create and share. Thank you! And may you feel that light shining on you until you are back outside in the garden!
Thank you very much, Catherine! That means a lot to me. 🙂
Lovely image, Eliza. It captures the hope that each new day and each new season brings. Merry Christmas and god jul!
Thank you, Peter. Blessings!
Gorgeous photo, Eliza. What time of day did you take this?
Thank you, Rebecca. It was taken just after sunrise. The golden light enticed me out into the chilly morning. 😉
It looks like it was worth every chilly moment!
It was one of my more fruitful forays. 😉
YOu see the Heart in everything, Eliza 🙂
Thank you, Kim. I wish my kids thought so. ;D
Lovely! And now we head toward the light. Happy solstice to you.
Thank you, Laurie. Warmth and light, hurrah!
I love the title–almost as much as the photograph. Almost.
Thank you, Albert!
Glorious image! “The new year’s sunshine blazed awake.” Happy solstice.
Thank you, Peter. I was lucky enough to attend The Christmas Revels in Cambridge MA in the early 80s when John Langstaff was director and Susan’s poem was recited by the group. It was a marvelous show, with the audience invited to join the ‘Lord of the Dance’ dancing throughout the hall. Good memories!
Thank you and great shot!
Thank you, Maria!
Beautiful photo! Perfect for solstice.
Thank you, Ellen!
A lovely scene! Let the longer days begin😊
Yes, indeed – thanks, Belinda!
And tomorrow the days start getting longer again – yay!
🙂 Going forward!
Merry Solstice to one and all. 😀
Thank you!
It was so dark this morning on my walk here (thanks to clouds and it being such a short day), but all I could think of was that tomorrow, the day is going to be a little longer. That thought definitely put a little spring in my step!
Yes, the time will go quickly. The benefit of growing older is that time speeds up! 😉
I’m not always super fond of that particular fact!
Whoosh! 😉
Beautiful photograph Eliza. Happy Solstice!
Thank you, Karina!
Magical, Eliza!
Thank you very much, Pete!
Longer days are coming!!
They are!
Excellent shot, Eliza. What a lovely solstice. We have grey clouds for days now.
BTW, it’s a habit of mine to find information what camera was used, and saw that the image was uploaded in original size and is 4.5 MB big. I was wondering once why Kathy, Lake Superior Spirit, has to pay so much to WordPress and learned that she did the mistake to run her blog in the first years with uploading the original images and she ran soon out of space.
Thank you. I don’t know about this. What do you recommend?
You ned to edit yor pictures and make them smaller. My images are not wider than 800 pixels. If you would reduze the size to 50% (1200 pixels in width) this would be fine and you would save space.
Reason behind this is that most monitors are up to 1920 pixels in width. The amount of 4k (high resolution monitors with 4.000 pixels in width) is increasing but they have a different way to display content. I think if you checked your theme, it’s only i1000 pixels wide. Your images don’t need to be 2.5 times bigger than your theme allows to show. .
And to you, Eliza. 🙏🏽
Thank you!
OH just beautiful, Eliza! The Peace just oozes from this picture. Thank you! 🤗
Thank you, Amy! 🙂
That is a magical photo! Reminds me about wintertime in Sweden. I miss it sometimes. Thank you for sharing that beautiful photo. You can almost hear Santa’s sleigh coming around the corner 😉
🙂 Thank you. Glad it triggered happy memories. Have a wonderful holiday!
Thank YOU 🙏
Such a wonderful way to bring in the Yule! The longest night has passed, and now it is time for the days to grow longer. Wishing you a Merry Christmas!
Thank you and the same to you!
Lovely, Eliza. So peaceful with the light. Happy Solstice to you!
Thank you, Mary! ❤
The winter solstice was a traditional winter celebration, turning the corner to spring. We have in the past had a party on the evening with a log fire outside. Happy Yuletide Eliza.
Thank you, Brian. Such nice memories, enjoy your Yuletide.
And so we start the climb into spring This year’s solstice was especially sunny and sweet. A good harbinger, perhaps?
I hope so!
Beautiful image, Eliza. Happy Yule to you and wishes for a joy filled new year 🙂
Thank you, Lynn!
Nice…😊
Thank you, Aman.
Beautiful. I wish you health and happiness in the coming year Eliza
Thank you, Denzil, same to you!
Fabulous shot!
Thank you, Fi. Happy New Year to you!
A lovely shot Eliza.
Thank you, Chloris!
Happy holidays!
Thank you, same to you!
Just lovely. We’ve had one nice snow so far where I live. I would like at least one more.
Thank you, Wendy, much appreciated.
This is breathtaking! One of the rare photos that move me deep within. I see lots & lots of absolutely stunning photos around but once in a blue moon, I see one and feel something stir inside, one that deeply resonates with me and this is one such photo! And there’s something so beautiful about sunlight in Winter. 😍😻
Thank you so much, Kim. I glad it spoke to you. Sunrises are always filled with hopeful optimism. 🙂
So beautiful! Breathtaking.
Thank you!
Beautiful photograph! Happy 2018!
Thank you!
