Winter came down to our home one night... Photo Gallery by Marisa Livet at pbase.com

Winter came down to our home one night... | "There is a harmony in autumn, and a luster in its sky...." | Daily prescriptions to survive summer. | July 2010 - Nearly private journal by images | Summer Lethargy

Winter came down to our home one night...

Winter came down to our home one night
Quietly pirouetting in on silvery-toed slippers of snow,
And we, we were children once again.

The gentle thief of colours came silently at night.
With her cold white fingers
stole all warm hues and nuances
Which she hid in her secrets chests
Then left us in exchange
Her soft and shining light coat.

I've looked at individual images from time to time, but an excellent overall gallery filled with beautiful images of a season I'll very much miss when we move. I guess I'll have to look at this to console myself ;-).

Your photographs are more than just images. They seem to be an outward expression of the eyes of wonder through which you view the world. To be abel to see it and express it the way that you do is a gift. Thank you for sharing.

Queste immagini rendono onore al Generale Inverno, che sa essere molto burbero, come quello che incontro io in montagna, ma qui si coglie solo tutta la sua suggestione

I like snow in an ice cream; but, this gallery is a delicious cold flavor...

Susan Kim		28-Feb-2005 08:02
I love snow hiding cold crispy frozen earth. How amazing ... the thing that come out of the coldest element becomes so warm and soft and melt everything away.. I could not help but trying to picture the beautiful scenary in the country. I really respect your gallery. You inspire me a lot. Marisa.

Guest		23-Feb-2005 23:51
Ahhhh Marisa, You again make the small little hairs on the back of my neck stand up. I look at my images, then at yours and I am wishing to scratch out my eyes because I cannot see what and how you see Bruce Roberts

Michele Rodgers		02-Feb-2005 06:57
There is just something special about a winter's day. Lovely gallery.

Guest		01-Feb-2005 15:12
A slight chill came over me as I browsed this gallery. I too used to love to go out and see the landscape as it was tranforming in the winter when I lived in cold country. Just wonderful how a light dusting of snow hides all the little imperfections and adds a glimmer of speckle to all things standing still. Once again we've enjoyed our stroll here.

Emmie Gray		31-Jan-2005 18:34
I had to go put on a sweater to see this whole gallery - I hope my computer won't freeze up! Splendid and chilly-looking, and so evocative of the beauty that winter can bring (but I'm glad you didn't call it 'The Beauty of Snow'...wink) EG

Alessandro Catuogno		31-Jan-2005 10:53
Che meraviglia. Grazie Marisa per aver mostrato,un insolito volto del lago.

Guest		30-Jan-2005 12:37
would you share with us how you do your framing. The pics are great and the frames make them stand out even better.

Marie-H�l�ne Raletz		26-Jan-2004 17:39
Wonderful snow, that covers everything with a veil of beauty! A delightfully chilly gallery, Marisa! Lucky you, I wish it would snow here too! ;-)) Marie H.
