Sunday Sunset

 We had the first snow of the season yesterday. This is my view from the back door.


Now on to the sunset. It is a strange one. A straight orange line surrounded by small grey clouds.







"There’s something quietly breathtaking about that very first snowfall. The way the world slows down, how the air smells impossibly clean, and how even the busiest streets seem to hush—it’s pure  magic.”

Unusual sunset, indeed, Ginny, and you photos capture it perfectly. Snow does change the way the world looks from the inside out. Your comment encapsulates this beautifully. Blessings!

That first snow and that uncanny streak of sunset light looks like nature’s gentle reminder to pause and marvel

my families first viewing of snow was in 1953 and I was 9 years old, we had never seen snow or heard the hush you speak of. all 4 of us always went out side when we went to bed with no snow and woke up with the blanket of snow.. the last week Beau and I have walked in that same hush, but its fog, not snow. it blankets the tops of the trees and it is dead quiet, it mutes sound.

Hello, dear friend! Yay for Christmas snow!!!! I know you are enjoying this festive time of year with your sweet family. And to answer your question, yes. We have water out our window...it is part of the bay that feeds into the ocean!

Interesting sky. I'm always fascinated when there are different "layers" of clouds like that.

Happy Winter! We've had snow for awhile now though I still love seeing when others get their first snow. Very pretty sky too! Happy Sunday!

Happy first snow. We probably won't get any this year here in Georgia. The strange sunset turned into quite a beauty!
