This might sound a touch strange but at this time of year when the flowers are beginning to bloom and the days are getting longer I always have a touch of sadness for the winter's passing. Why? Because while I am looking forward to so many things in spring I will miss the oft overlooked beauty of the tree's shadow, like this one. Like a snowflake no two are alike. - Fern

Situated on the far west coast of Canada, on the southern tip of Vancouver Island, Victoria is the capital city of the Province of British Columbia. Its benign climate (the warmest winters in Canada) and placid lifestyle make it a favorite retirement location as well as a popular tourist destination. About 400,000 people live in Victoria and adjacent communities.

beautiful thoughts Fern!! I love the outline of bare branches too. Great photo.
Good morning, I've just sent you an email to the address in the sidebar. I'm interested in chatting with you for a RVwest magazine story on Victoria. thanks for sharing your beautiful photos! I look forward to hearing back.
Nice shadows!
Beautiful shadows, and that shade of green used on the house is quite appealing.
Love the pictures. It's very moody. I for one will be more than happy to see winter's end.
The shadows are beautiful, but I will gladly trade them for the end of winter this year!
