About the picture:
It’s an old barn in the field and during that time it was fogging, the sky color was light pink and below was light blue..I couldn’t really get the right color when I took that picture but it’s close to what I took.. It was so amazing feeling to see it in actual, what a great memory – Old barn on a snowy field, Janice Perkkio (somewhere in Scandinavia)
About the picture:
in January, frost -28, wonderful color brilliance, in Finnish Lapland, Sodankylä

i came across both of these photos a year apart, taken by different people in different places
I’m so in awe of their quiet winter beauty
