Because staying warm is for sane people

The last couple of days have been painfully cold outside. So cold in fact, that when I threw a cup of boiling water outside, it turned into snow instantly...

So what does a blogger do when the temp drops and the snow drifts just keep getting deeper?

Go outside and take photos of course!



I could only stand to be outside for a few moments at a time, so there are only two photos taken during the day, which are above. However, we had a lovely moon last night, and clear skies, so I went to take photos of the moonlight reflecting off the snow. I was pleasantly surprised at how lovely they came out!



If you would like to keep up with my photography, please feel free to like Isabella Grey Photography on Facebook!

Love and Lightning Bugs,

  1. LOL, you are brave! I have to go out to pick up my kids at school soon and I am dreading standing out in the cold for 10 minutes :)

    I love your photos, so I think in your case it was worth it :)

  3. People have been complaining so much about the cold; I love how you have demonstrated the beauty and elegance of snow and ice with your photos. The cold weather may be a nuisance at times, but I think it's also important to step back and bask in its beauty!

  4. LOL at the water! I'm going to try it. I went to put the mailbox back together (it was taken out by a plow) and my hair was a little wet from the shower. I had a hat and hood on but my hair was FROZEN when I came back in. Too funny!

  6. Beautiful shots, though I am too much of a pansy to go out with my camera when it's this cold out! I have been debating the cold weather/boiling water thing all day, but don't want to open the door to try it lol.

  23. You have an eye for these things. The most beautiful things does happen after a bit of sacrifice. I've seen on the news what is happening there in the west. I hope the warm season comes faster!
