Miniature Winter Landscapes

 

 






All of the above are macro photos from the top of this stone wall running along the cemetery:


Temperature around -12°C (10°F)... 


... and loooooong shadows...

I had no idea how tall you ARE...these are amazing scapes. i had no idea they were on a wall.. super snow shots...

DawnTreader said...

If I didn't know it was my own shadow, I'd be scared of it! :)

DawnTreader said...

Thanks Janet. Too cold to walk very far today, but tried to make the most of what I could find nearby ;)

Librarian said...

Wow, these are great, Monica!
-12C... oh dear... I know it can get much colder than that in your area, and also where I live, but I hope it won't come to that this winter. We've actually had some snow here today, but I think it was still just slightly above zero.

very cool. i like your tiny worlds. :) thanks for linking the great stone wall, too!

Graham Edwards said...

What an absolutely splendid set of photos Monica.

ADRIAN said...

These are brilliant. I'll have to have a go at this but you have set a very high standard.

I always enjoy your macro photos Monica...the snow is so beautiful and really good to view it on that level.
Not sure I'd be out and about in -12 degrees C, but the photos were worth it.

Thanks Meike. We seem to be into a cold spell here. Got a little more snow today too (but only a very thin layer).

DawnTreader said...

Like someone laid the table for me, TexWisGirl - at just the right hight! :)

DawnTreader said...

Thank you, Graham. I'm rather pleased with them myself, actually!

DawnTreader said...

Thanks Adrian. The stone wall is very convenient... Did not have to bend down to take these macros!

I do try to get out for a little while most days, Virigina, even if not very far. (The cemetery is only a few minutes walk from where I live. Getting dressed for going out in this weather takes longer than the actual walk from here to there, though!)

Lovely! I enjoy looking on the top of walls at all time of year, there are often such interesting tiny plants growing on them.

Midmarsh John said...

Brilliant idea and photos. I would never have guessed you were looking at the top of a wall.

DawnTreader said...

I agree, Jenny :)

DawnTreader said...

Thanks. It can be a lot of fun sometimes to play around with macros and perspectives!

Marie Smith said...

Beautiful work. Got the link from Adrian.

Pauline said...

Hard to believe you got these images without bending down. They are beautiful!
