discontent

what a winter of discontent...the car is frozen shut as freezing air persists, another snowstorm arrives tonight, and BC is seeing record high new Covid case numbers thanks to the insidious Omigosh variant

it's enough to make a person resigned to staying home, and finally getting around to dusting the bookshelves

I’m glad this year is almost over. This photo is stormy and dramatic just like 2021. V

Yes, that looks pretty grim. But before I start dusting I'm going to wait until there are frogs underfoot and the water has turned to blood.

The perfect image for a another challenging winter.
We're facing a similar ominous situation here due to rocketing Covid cases although thankfully we only have rain to contend with.
Maybe just pull out a favourite book and leave the dusting for anther day. V

I hear ya about the shelves, but resist the urge. Bundle up and keep shooting.

This is a melancholy masterpiece!
The mood hangs so heavy over this work.
I believe you will be like me and dusting will quickly turn to reading!
I also cannot really see how people who do not read get through dark times such as these.

Probably good to stay home under those conditions. Perhaps a good time to brush up on Shakespeare.

Oh no, not dusting the bookshelves! I hate that job, I always get distracted and start looking at books and the job never gets done. So much better to go for a walk and take cool photos. Yes, 2021 is ending poorly.

It's a great brooding image! Glad I haven't been discontented enough to get around to dusting my bookshelves. Think how happy your books must be!

A nice capture for another challenging Winter.

a little dark and bleak but there is still a little warmth remaining.

Our year of discontent aptly describes 2021.
I have many shelves to dust.

So sorry to hear of the problems you're facing there, well reflected by your fine capture. Dusting bookshelves sounds like a not-so-bad idea right about now.

Wonderful dark mood - it's been a year of discontent :( V
