I love sunsets and am always looking for them. BEV
Northeast Gardening: Garden Photos - Part 45
I love sunsets, all of them.
Yours are all beautiful.
All very nice.
Thanks, Victor.
I love sunsets, too, Bev. I try to take my camera with me wherever I go, as you never know when you will come upon something worthy of photographing. I hate it when I miss out on a great photo opportunity because I forgot my camera.
Karen
Thankyou here is another one. BEV
I have missed some good things like that too Karen. BEV
Very nice, Bev. I like that one a lot.
Karen
This is the same one only moved over a little.
Those are some great sunsets everyone. Looks very inviting.
Hi RC
Jo Ann here a bit groggy. Bitter cold this AM 12*
Thank gawd we have heat.
12 deg. Jo Ann? that's cold. Hopefully it's supposed to get above freezing for you today.
I'm done with gardening ,the weather can do what it wants.
Pirl and I are waiting for the long promised new online catalogue from RosyDawn today.
She is still out there transplanting, she lives on Long Island about 800 miles south so she goes on.
Oh my goodness, I take two days away (first time away from my mom in almost three years) and look at all these pics. It is hard to keep up. Great shots everyone. Shrubs, snow and sunsets. All are very pretty. I particularly like that nandina Victor, I guess I have another for the some day shrub list.
Freezing here, too. It's 17 here now, and only gonna get into the 20's today. But go figure, it's gonna get up to 60 on Wed. with rain. Oh, well, what can you do? Wish I was anyplace warm right now.

Think w have problems?
Take a look at Venice
http://www.boston.com/bigpicture/2008/12/venice_under_water.html
Okay, a great reason for not moving to Venice!
Karen
I can swim. I'd live there for the food.
It would be a sad loss if Venice were to "sink." With sea levels rising, I can only imagine they are in for a long term battle.
I like where I am, for good or for ill, the more you go south, the more dangerous the tiny critters get, the more north, the longer without any summer .....
I seem to notice a trend of those who complain about the cold also being those who walking around in sandals and a light wind breaker! I barely notice the cold in my warm boots and downy winter jacket (that goes past the waist!).
Ok ... time to shovel the walk (again) for my neighbors and the post person .......
Venice has been sinking for years.
There are engineers who have tried a solution but none comes forth.
It will go the way of Atlantice someday.
I cant get over how many ways the venecians cope with it.
I don't know if I'll ever see it, either. Would like to visit someday.
Karen
Might be a great scuba vacation. Silly to keep fighting to maintain cities that are below sea level!
Its been years since I saw any plans to fix it.
All the comments crack me up...... How healthy is it to be eating the food from those shops that are flooded??? ick
I was wondering that same thing, Jen!
eeeeeeeeeew. I didn't think about that. Based on the condition of the canals in spring and summer I might just erp
Lovely photos! Sunsets were spectacular! Love Patches, Karen. She looks like my GSP cross.
Nice shot, Robin. The pond is solidly frozen today!
Birdsnest spruce, I think.
Pieris.
Dawn redwood.
Viburnum Erie.
You got me with the frozen pond again. I dont know how Im going to paint it but it deserves a try.
Also up there with the best is the Pieris.
Thanks. Paint away! It really has an abstract beauty when you see it in person. 'Frozen' in many ways.
Suspended animation was the phrase that was eluding me.
There is a painter who can capture the deep pond water effect. Wish I knew how he does it.http://www.josephraffael.com/index.php
Joseph Raphael.
Those colors are enchanting.
I cant paint flowers all the time.
All the water garden 'experts' recommend cutting the water lilies in the fall but I love to leave them for this reason.
Great Pics Victor. they are all great.
Robin, your dog is cute.
