I really enjoy winter landscapes. I'm not a big fan of the cold temps, but I just love how things look in winter, snowy or not. I thought we could share the views out our windows, wherever we are- cold clime or not! Mine, from the front window of my house in Pennsylvania: From the back...- Sweet Leilani
