Beautiful photo - and it just shows how deep your snow is. I love to see seedheads covered in frost or snow. The British media should see this before they start their 'Britain crippled by heavy snow' when we get a couple of centimetres!
beautiful, cate. did you see the snow covered sedum (autumn joy) flowerheads over at my place? the gardens were transformed recently and so lovely in their white hats and gowns!
These are the wandering journeys of a thoughtful mind, a passionate eye, a fey wit and an earth loving heart through the landscape with camera in hand.
Catherine (Cate) Kerr is a freelance photographer, writer, editor and graphic designer with her roots firmly planted in the good dark soil of the eastern Ontario highlands. She is an ardent seeker, a naturalist and a wordsmith, a student of deep ecology in this and many other lifetimes, a devotee of untrodden lands, of twilight, full moons, liminal places and the wild wisdom which sustains the cosmos.

One of the most beautiful novels of the year has to be Kim Antieau's The Church of the Old Mermaids. The book sparkles like the Old Sea, and it's brimming with wit, magic, wisdom and elemental truth. COTOM has its very own blog, and the book which is published by the Rose Fairy Emporium can be ordered from Amazon here.
Doors to the Universe, Dolores Stewart
Bellowing Ark Press has published a gorgeous volume of poetry by Dolores Stewart Riccio (writing as Dolores Stewart) called Doors to the Universe. This wise and thoughtful work flows like a winding river, and I dip into it oftentimes for nurture and comfort. Doors can be ordered online at Bellowing Ark Press, and subscriptions to their superb literary journal are available there too.
To return to our senses is to renew our bond with wider life, to feel the soil beneath the pavement, to sense — even when indoors — the moon's gaze upon the roof. David Abram, The Spell of the Sensuous
It began in mystery, and it will end in mystery, but what a savage and beautiful country lies in between. Diane Ackerman, A Natural History of the Senses
When we deliberately leave the safety of the shores of our lives, we surrender to a mystery beyond our intent. Ann Linnea, Deep Passage

My dear... I am so glad that I found my way to your blog through the Vulture Café. I'm delighted to know you're out there, look forward to perusing your work at length and the wonderful links you've provided. Thank you for the inspiration and reminders of my deepest love and motivation.
I came back, looking for my daily fix but this is still enough.
It will be 40C here today, and the night was very warm. I'll wrap myself in the cool of this image today!
