Around the world, winter looks very different--and day to day, year-to-year, it looks different in each particular place. I enjoy documenting the winter scenes around me, which, this January, continue to feature green grass and bright leaves.
For a collection of truly brilliantly photographed and rendered winter scenes, though, check out Dierk Haasis's gallery:

And now, to my own very different, and much less ably photographed and processed January back-yard leaves. This shrub grows near the railings of my small back porch. I caught it in a rare ray of sun on January 19.
Couldn't capture the branch fully backlit--the sun's bright disk glared too much. So I shot at a slightly southeastern angle and then put that transparent glow back on them as well as I could in post-processing.
January Back Porch Leaves
I hope you enjoy them as much as I do.
And I hope you will go and enjoy Dierk's beautiful winter photos, the link to which I placed above, in this post:
