The look of winter

ewkaw (70) in photography • 5 years ago

We do not get snow around here. Hardly any frost even. So the whole winter is just rainy and cold and dark. The only thing I could shoot now are some dried plants and maybe, if I am lucky some lost yellow flower. Those seem to pop here and there all winter long.

Those look like flower buds that didn't manage to bloom. They dried together with the leaves around.

A little bit of spiderwebs to add some detail...
Pity there was no fog that day to catch the pretty little drops on it and I didn't have a spray bottle with me. It becomes very handy sometimes.

The one below I am almost sure belong to a type of Rockrose. I see them around and they always look so rusty. Both leaves, stems and the seed pods.

And last but not least - the cool Briza grass. This one has lost half of the... what is it - a flower or a pod?
Anyway... half of that dingly thing is gone :p They are pretty much all over the place too and in spring and summer they bloom multiple times. Originally green, now all faded.

The regular grass is normally pretty green too cause of all the rain. I guess I can shoot a lot of green too :P
