Christmas portraits in winter white


The weekend before Christmas and all through the malls, everyone was stirring in a world of bright lights and noise. Conversely, the Creator painted a different picture. 
With snow lightly falling in a backdrop of leaden skies, the seashore beckoned.



My only companion, a sole sea gull, braved
 the cold New England winds.

Snow covered sand creeps up to the water's edge.

One continuous wave slides into shore.

"Oh I wish I had a river I could skate away on," are the words to a
 popular Christmas song. This Sakonnet inlet would do fine.

A red and green barn is surrounded by snowy fields.
