2203_0058 Flowers of Winter

            I don't know what flowers these are; they're too far removed from the living plants. Maybe a species of aster? Those grow here in late summer. But maybe something else...

It doesn't matter; this image is all about the drifted snow that had enshrouded this plant's stem, as if gift-wrapping it for us. Death never looked so beautiful.

There were two, side by side, but I know that two of anything can divide attention, so I left extra space around them, and in the end I did crop one out. Keeping it simple.
