António Pires from Lisbon, Portugal
No one in sight. The image states clearly that's not a season to walk in the open.

@António Pires: Hey Antonio, it's beautiful though when it's snows, it's not so cold, so a walk is nice ;) thanks a lot

Viewfinder from Bradenton, United States
Looks pretty darned cold this day Lorraine. Oh, did you hear my home town New Orleans got snowed on yesterday? All the folks back in LA were on top of the world (snow there is a happening, pure excitement!).

JoeB from Brampton, Canada
Just went through your last few days postings, we've had some snow but it looks like you got a permanent winter, keep the chin up and the shovel straight.
12 Dec 2008 3:22pm
@JoeB: Yes Sir Joe! I loved your comment 'Keep the chin up and the shovel straight.' wow is it your quote, 'cause it would be a great addition to the Canadian expression lit. :)
Stephen Phillips from San Francisco, United States
Nice, Lorraine. The brick house with the porch on the right looks much like the home I grew up in - just northwest of Washington, D.C.
12 Dec 2008 3:24pm
@Stephen Phillips: Really? lucky you , I love it :)
Observing from West Cheshire, United Kingdom
Whoa.. this is a real Winter scene, snow everywhere, but it does look nice. I think the monochrome side of the picture looks really good, a bit vintage look.
12 Dec 2008 3:31pm
@Observing: Hey i appreciate that Mike ;)
@alex centrella: Yes indeed Alex and it's freakin' cold this morning ;)
@kerfendal: Ha oui eh bein j't'envoie de la douce neige Max :)
Bookfool from Vicksburg, United States
Wow, that's a gorgeous scene. Do you just go out on long walks in your own neighborhood?
12 Dec 2008 5:29pm
@Bookfool: Hey Book, more like short drives lol ;) thanks a lot!
@yiannis krikis: Thanks very much Yiannis :)
Marion from Nanaimo, BC, Canada
Your selective coloring in this one works well. Makes the house look like it is the only warm spot in this cold, cold world. Well done Lorraine.
12 Dec 2008 6:18pm
@Marion: You noticed! lol thanks so much dear Marion :)
@Alun Lambert: It is too cold already, but when it snows, it's milder and prettier, and hell on driving, but I don't mind that lol thanks a lot Alun :)
Roman from Thunder Bay, Canada
I like the scenery and at least you have much more snow, we're just getting bitter cold..
cheers
Roman
12 Dec 2008 8:59pm
@Roman: That's true indeed, people who don't live in cold weathered country, don't realize that when it snows, it's actually milder, it's that raw bitter cold that gets to you after a while, and my staying near a lake makes whatever cold out there even colder ;) thanks A lot Roman
Gary from Cochise County, United States
So, do you like the columns? I do. I bet you just love "Gone with the Wind". :)
12 Dec 2008 11:23pm
@Gary: I do and I did, but not so much the heat over there, a little extreme to me ;) Thanks Gary!
@Michael Rawluk: How can I? Poor thing's on all day ;) Thanks Michael lol
Siam from Chaingrai, Thailand
Il y a pas un chat à l'extérieur que toi, pour prendre les photos.
12 Dec 2008 11:50pm
@Siam: Très, très vrai, Siam, par contre, le reste du monde travaille et moi je me promène ;)
Pixim from Nice, France
De lire ton titre, j'aime cette répétition de motif, colonnes, arbre, poteaux, colonnes. Un petit arbre sans prétention et tout de même là pour contredire cette logique, et tant mieux. Sinon, l'hiver semble installé, je veux voir des bonshommes de neiges ... ;)
13 Dec 2008 12:24am
@Pixim: Bonjour poète Eric, merci de ce gentil commentaire, j'en ai quelques uns, me suffit de les dénicher ;)
JJ from Jersey City, United States
wonderful looking house, but wow you have some serious snow, stay warm, and look after arabella and friends ;)
13 Dec 2008 1:27am
@JJ: That's not mine JJ, unfortunately...but tomorrow's is, thanks so much.. Arabella stays warm by cuddling up with the many friends I was ordered to purchase ;) she also has asked me to give up apples, but she'll accept pears...
akarui from Kagoshima, Japan

13 Dec 2008 3:19am
@Andrew Gould: Thanks very much Andrew, it's very cold here right now, and still mid 30s Celcius doesn't appeal to me, too hot...I like anything between 15 and 25 lol
@jamesy: Isn't it nice of the house though lol thanks a lot Debbie ;)
