The blue and white sky of winter reminds us of the snow and shadows on the ground. A wonderful backdrop for any winter scene, or any season that calls for a delicate sky. You can fill it with birds and trees can stretch their branches outward. What wonderful scene will you create?

When you see this in the sky, it probably means hail without any clouds!

A shimmer in the sky means winter is nigh. Six months of the year?

Butterflies are a universal symbol of transformation and change, as no creature undergoes such an amazing metamorphosis as the caterpillar to butterfly. On a spiritual level the butterfly is associated with the soul and rebirth. These delicate frosty butterflies with their wings rimmed in violet are a true delight.

When freezing fog and excess moisture meet with the perfect temperature, a picturesque winter wonderland is the result. This frosty display of crystalline beauty is either referred to as hoar frost or rime ice depending on the weather conditions.

A gentle swirl of snowflakes to add a touch of winter to your scene.

A peaceful and magical look as glittery snowflakes fall to the ground.

The cold is not for everypet, and neither is heights. But if you can brave both, the Icy Mountains are calling you home. Bursts of green accent the mountains, offering brief moments of reprieve from the peaks of white. Find a cave, a valley, maybe a tree, and stake your claim in these mountains. The view is worth the effort.

The wind is blowing, the rain is lashing down - oh my! But don't worry. Just think how well your vegetables will grow after I've gone.

One of the true delights of fair weather is watching fluffy white cumulus cloud shapes, etched by an invisible artist on a vast canvas of blue sky. Cloud watching is best done with a good friend, lying on your backs or sitting comfortably. You see an elephant; your friend sees an angel. You both say “Train” at the same time and have a good laugh. Your friend spots an ice cream cone, and you see a hamburger. It must be time for lunch. Who knew that so many joyous hours could be spent just watching cumulus clouds on a sunny day?

The sky is darkening as grey nimbus clouds form overhead. You rush to bring in the clothes that are drying on the line before the first drops begin to fall. Thirsty plants prepare for happy hour where the drinks are free and completely refreshing. The timpani of heaven thunder as the storm clouds release their cargo of rain on the parched earth. Lightning flashes illuminate the sky in a glorious display. The soothing rhythm of raindrops on the rooftop relaxes every muscle in your body. What a perfect opportunity for a nap!
