Photo of the week #115 - The winter

Hello, my friends on Steem.

Привет, стимитяи и стимитяйки.

This post was written specifically for the Photo of the week #115 | Submissions post | The winter contest by @mister-omortson


Mister-omortson gave the task to show winter. At first glance, this is a very simple task, but if you think deeper, it turns out that not everything is so simple with this task. Winter is all around me now. I just need to point the camera in any direction, take a photo and the task is completed. But this is very trivial. I was preparing photos for the contest this morning and it seemed to me that I had selected the photos I needed. But in the afternoon I thought about it again and thought that I was completely unprepared for the competition.

I decided that first I had to show the sunrise, the beginning of a winter day. Then I can develop the theme of a winter day and finish with a sunset. The day is very short in winter, so it will take about 3-5 photos. But their number began to grow. And I realized that they need to be reduced.

Well, I'll show you a little winter photo series from my album. Yesterday I had to dig through it in search of the video I needed for my daughter. The search has not yet been successful. But I decided to get the photos and post them for display.

Last year I took several winter walks on the railway, in one of them my wife was even with me. Several more times we walked with her in the spring in the same place. This year, the desire to walk there has not yet appeared. You need to walk after the frost when the snow along the road becomes dense. Otherwise, the walk becomes like self-torture.

These firewood are used in the factory boiler room to generate heat for the factory and for parts of the houses in the locality. Yes, we already have natural gas in the city, but only the private sector uses it for heating. Anyway, I heat my house with a gas boiler.

This dog did not want to let me pass to the bridge over the Vyatka. But in the end, I persuaded her to let me pass and she decided to rest on the sidelines.

One of the signs of winter is the birds at my feeder, which hangs on a tree in the garden next to my window.



Walking through the winter snow forest with my dog Count.
Now she is walking in paradise. I buried her in early December. It was a sad part of the beginning of winter.

The sun sets over the horizon, not even having time to rise high into the sky. The day began and quickly ended.

December 21 is the longest night of the year. At this time, our city is immersed in darkness for 17 hours!
I wish everyone a good night and pleasant dreams.


And what will I show at the contest? Snow! The wealth of winter is snow.
