Guillermina from Buenos Aires, Argentina
Gorgeous in its desolation. And isolation.
If I had to describe what memories of a lonely winter look like I'd say, "Like this."

Barbara from Florida, United States
I have the chills viewing this one. Excellent Lorraine. I like the B&W. Nice use of the frost and moisture in the image. The trees and structure in background give it a nice feel.
Nice comment from Hans.

@Barbara: Thanks a lot Barbara, I appreciate your comment, and yes Hans made me sing along :)
Japanalia from Yokohama, Japan
Looking at your shot I got inspiration:
I could not go out...
I must stay inside....
It makes me so sad
And feel I get mad
When I see that snow
Thawing........oh!...so slow!!!
And those dready skies,
Where no sunbeam shines!
Winter......winter at my window,
Breathing winds
Frosty and hollow.
You see...what your photos can cause!
4 Feb 2008 12:23pm
@Japanalia: Wow Gabriela, I'm honoured...
@amy: Thanks a lot Amy :)
