This week’s topic for Cee’s Fun Photo Challenge is things that are cold.
I see a pattern with my images: they are mostly based on the weather. Snow and ice and cold is all I can think about. The temperatures will drop this weekend to their lowest of the winter so far.
I wonder how I would have done this challenge in the summer time? Maybe images of ice-cold drinks sitting out in the sun?
Speaking of summer, it will be nice to get out to the parks and playgrounds again.
Or go swimming in the lake.
Or go check out the marina near the beach.
Looking at flowers again in warm weather.
Or even just looking at stop signs without being reminded of snow.
But for now, my world is full of things that are cold. And that includes me!

Seriously you need to consider a book with your pics. It would make a great coffee table book.
Your pics are stunning, and I am really sorry you are dealing with the cold….Stay warm 🙂
Thank you, Lynne, for the confidence boost again 🙂 I will give it some thought! It’s funny because I love photography but just considered it a hobby, how exciting would it be to have a book out… Anyway, thanks for your warm wishes. I do like winter, but sometimes get carried away complaining about it 🙂 We’ll be fine, because after a cold weekend it’s going to warm up again, haha.
My pleasure 🙂 Hey, you are allowed to complain about the cold, it is very normal 🙂 . x
Thanks 🙂 xo
I love these pictures and brrr!
These shots are amazing! I almost had to wrap myself up in a blanket LOL! Seriously, the imagery and relevance to the theme were great. I am following you as I can’t wait to see what is next 🙂
Hi Lydia, thanks for stopping by and leaving such a nice comment! I’m happy you enjoyed it, and I hope you didn’t get too chilly 🙂 Thanks again, and enjoy your Friday!
Beautiful photos Cynthia, Lynn from lynz real cooking recommending I come over to visit you. I am glad I did! Hope your day is a happy one! 🙂
Thanks so much for checking out my blog! I’m glad you enjoyed my photos 🙂 Have a great day!!
I just had to put on my coat to view your photos. Wonderful COLD photography. 😀
Thanks, Cee! Here’s sending you a mug of hot cocoa to warm up! 🙂 This was a fun challenge along with last weeks hot things.
Lovely pics 🙂
Thank you so much, Freda!
Fantastic pictures Cynthia! The playground is my favorite…I love the color contrast.
Thanks! That’s what caught my eye too! If you click the link below the picture, they’re a post with more playground pics from that same day. Have s great weekend!
Cool, I’ll check it out 🙂 I hope you have a great weekend too!
I came over here from Lynn’s website – and I have to say, this post is great. It looks like your thoughts of summer have the same problem my thoughts of summer have: a very thick layer of snow!
Hi Sarah, thanks so much for stopping by! I’m glad that you enjoyed this post and that you can relate 🙂 Good news is that we get closer to summer every day!
I like that thought!
Your photos totally capture the concept “cold”. And I love reading other people’s comments about your photos, too. What a gift you have!
Thank you so much, Carol, that’s so nice to hear. You’ve made my day 🙂 I hope you enjoy your weekend!
I got cold just looking at these beautiful shots. =)
Thanks so much! But I’m sorry you got cold 🙂 Wish I could send you a hot mug of tea
Ha ha ha. Just meant you satisfied the prompt very well.
You have lots of snow. I love the landscapes. Snow can be so expressive!
Thanks! I agree, it’s interesting to see how a blanket of snow can change things.
Summer is all I can think of to, I am obsessed with thoughts of summer right now! I think you did a great job representing cold in these pictures!
This weekend has been the coldest it’s been all winter here too, bah!!
Thanks, Dana! I can’t believe how cold it’s been this weekend. I hope you are staying warm! Slightly better weather ahead this week at least. Spring is close, we’ll get there!
This is true 😀
Hope you had a nice weekend 🙂
xo
I did, thank you, and I wish the same to you! xo
Oh my goodness, these are wonderful photos! You’re a great photographer, Cynthia! February is obviously a freezing month for you out there. It looks magnificent, but I imagine you all need your woolly socks and vests on! haha. Winter has been a mild one here – no snow at all in my area, and very little frost. It almost seems like spring is almost here on some days. Thanks for sharing those superb views,
Thank you so much for your lovely compliments! I’m happy that you like my photos! Yes it does get quite cold here, in fact last night and today were the coldest it’s been all winter. There have been offical warnings because the wind chill factor has been as low as -15F, which can cause frostbite and hypothermia if you’re not properly bundled up. Thankfully I’ve been able to stay indoors. Some places in this area have broken records this weekend for low temperatures!
So loved the pics. I could almost feel the chill in my fingers. 🙂
Thank you, Nitin! I hope you were able to warm up quickly afterwards 🙂 Thanks for stopping by!
Hehe.. yes. 🙂
Really beautiful ! 🙂
Thank you so much!
