a new attitude...

last january, we had snow, lots of snow.  probably too much snow... 

but it was a winter wonderland to photograph and i loved every minute of it.   
it was cold, it was slippery, it was beautiful...



i realized yesterday that this year i was on hold. 
i was waiting for snow to get out and take some pictures. 
this january didn't have any of the beauty that last january had...

i worked every waking moment in november and december, longing for the peace and beauty of january... 
and yet when it got here, all i saw was gray and drab.

this realization came to me around 3pm yesterday afternoon.
and with it, came the clarity of mind that january WAS beautiful this year,
i just wasn't seeing it for what it was...

i was looking for something different and therefore missing
the beauty that was right there in front of me all along...

so i grabbed my cameras and went for a ride.
and there it was, everywhere...
not only did i have a lovely ride, i intend to have a beautiful january :)
