This is about the sky.
The rocks and snow, sand and grasses in the foreground? Forget about it.
The searing reflection of sunlight on the still water. Not it.
It's the blue above all of this that is tenaciously itself wherever you go. It belongs to winter. It is the blue that reminds you how much you love summer but only because you walk here now. You abide. The snow, the cold puddles, the biting winds, the harsh rains. You feel it, you take it in, you peel it off, you thaw by the fire. You know that blue through it all because it is the blue of summer that bids you feel the joy of being here because you have always been here. This blue is the happy emblem of faith well kept.

A beautiful reminder indeed! I do love your blue for the day! Thank you for sharing!

Beautiful words and picture. I do look forward to summer. We've had a real winter here, which is not typical.
this is one gorgeous photo.
Those are some gorgeous blues. They go from Indigo to cerulean with every blue inbetween. I would love more of that warm sunlight.
So true - we tend to ignore that 'blue' so many times.
Lovely.
very nice shot sandy.
I don't mind the cold looking at something like this.You never get tired.
I want to sit on one of those rocks and simply absorb that silver and blue for a long long time...magical.
Wow!
Happy Sky Watching!

It's a beautiful blue. Winter blues are the best. I revel in the cold, play in the snow, and chase the light to sunset.
Deep reflection against a beautiful, blue sky. Thanks for your thoughtful words and images Sandy.
So nicely written, Sandy!
You nailed it, although I have to admit that I love the Oklahoma blue sky for its wintery ownself after a cold front has blown in.
"you abide." So true one has to abide.
Great shot.
So well written... very beautiful.
Beautifully written! But I do love the clear blue of a sunny winter's day.
A lovely winter sky!
Lovely skies beautifully captured!

A pretty sky and a beautiful scene, Sandy! Have a happy weekend!
Oh!I must be there to feel it in order to appreciate summer which we've it for 365 days here.
After your lovely words, I feel a little sad that I'm not actually experiencing Winter. (But I'll get over it ;>)!)
Wonderful ,my friend.
