We had an unseasonably warm Autumn. Our trees and bushes started blooming again and I had the the a lucky fortune to watch my forsythia bloom twice last year!! It’s bright cheerful yellow is one my garden favorites. Then what do you know… first week of December Winter blew in with our first snow of the season! While I was quite enjoying Autumn, my favorite season, the first snowfall is so dreamy. The heavy snow blanketing the forsythia really made it feel like a winter fairy-tale.
What have you spotted in that is SNOW BEAUTIFUL? Share your captures this week below! Need more inspiration print or pin the Winter Photography Checklist with 20 prompts in total!

Kristy, what cool photos! How does the late fall blooming affect the plant the following spring? I’ve often wondered about such things. It’s really neat to capture snow on blooming flowers, though. It’s a rare occurrence but in the spring, that’s happened here (Tennessee Valley). Thank you for the lovely share. Have a fototastic week and please feel free to join my humble not-so WW linky party!

Cathy this is a first for a second bloom here in late fall. We’ve never experienced since warm temps as we did last fall. I am agree to to find out, I hope it just continues to grow!
