I took a walk around the yard this afternoon enjoying what is supposed to be the last decent day for quite a while. We’re supposed to get 7cm of (blowing) snow and cold temperatures overnight. No big news to us, we already have some snow – it is the middle of November, after all. Well, I found some delightful examples of white. First, these fungi? growing on the fallen white poplar, now topped off with a bit of the ‘white stuff’.

Great shots! Our lakes haven’t even frozen over yet!!
That lake is already frozen? WoW!
All great shots =)
Really liked all your white shots – particularly your second one. It must be amazing to see such a transformation in your lake throughout the year’s seasons.
Love the birch bark – and your last shot is lovely. That snow looks so fresh. We have had a mild few days and now it is raining again.
The birch trees are so beautiful and I love the look of the snow. Is the lake actually frozen already? I can appreciate the beauty in the photos, but I also understand how it would get old fast. I look forward to enjoying the winter scenes through your blog since I won’t get to see it in person!
The birch bark is absolutely gorgeous!!
birch trees is so fascinating!

Lovely textures! We’re still in short sleeves unbelievably!!!
Crazy how different it is from one part of the country to the next. Love your white captures. The snow covered mushrooms and birches are beautiful. But I really love the composition and texture of the first one. Thanks so much for joining the Shades of Autumn Photo Challenge. I hope you’ll join us next week with your favorite autumn photo for a chance to win some fab prizes.
I love your snow shots! I can’t wait to take pictures of the snow, if we ever get any :)
Beautiful white photos. I love the vastness of the last photo, so peaceful and lovely. Thank you for sharing!
