I’ll break my little string of winter photos with this gorgeous one that was taken of Loch Ard, on the edge of the Highlands, back in the fall. What is it about mist that makes you think of magic?

Here’s another photo that evokes a sense of fantasy and magic. A crannog is either: 1) a type of ancient loch-dwelling, which is often round, or 2) “artificial or modified natural islands” which “were as much a product of their environment as the period in which they were constructed.” (as per The Scottish Crannog Centre)
This one is in the middle of Loch Tay:
I know it’s been months…I’m having trouble falling into the habit of blogging here! I’ll try to at least share photos more often!
I saw this photo (another of Scotland) this morning, and to me, it looks like something out of a fantasy story. This is somewhere in the wilds of the Highlands, where the snow and extra-cold temperatures have bathed everything in the colors of steel and white.

This is a deceptively beautiful scene, though, for it is a dangerous one. Over the Holidays, they had three avalanches…one of which killed a blogger whom I’ve followed for two years.
Avalanches aren’t a problem here in Ohio, though. No mountains, unfortunately. But winter’s beauty still surrounds me. Here is what I was treated to on my way to church Sunday morning, courtesy of my camera phone:
