Mon Pays C'est L'Hiver by Joanne Bradley
No truer words ever spoken… Winter is My Country! / ‘Mon Pays.’ Song commissioned from Gilles Vigneault by the Canadian National Film Board for Arthur Lamothe’s 1965 film La Neige a fondu sur la Manicouagan. Vigneault wrote both the words and the music and completed the song in 1964. The opening phrase – ‘Mon pays, ce n’est pas un pays, c’est l’hiver’ (‘My country is not a country, it’s winter’) – provides a good illustration of the metaphoric character of the song, in which Vigneault speaks above all of winds, cold, snow, and ice. The weather of northern Quebec can be viewed as a metaphor for its cultural isolation. But ‘in this land of snowstorms’ the author still vows to remain faithful and hospitable like his father before him, who built a home there: ‘the guestroom will be such that people from the other seasons will come and build next door to it.’ He also evokes in the second verse the solitude of wide open spaces and the ideal of brotherhood. Vigneault then ends with these words: ‘My country is not a country, it’s the reverse of a country that was neither country nor homeland. My song is not a song, it’s my life. It is for you that I want to possess my winters.’ ~thecanadianmusicencyclopedia.com / Mon Pays Nikon D40, Nikkor 18-55mm lens / Taken on Wednesday December 31st/08, New Year’s Eve at Oka Park in Quebec, CANADA. This tree is draped over the frozen shoreline of Lake of Two Mountains. Growing up in a country that has a cold winter teaches you valuable lessons about the land and the season. Whether you like it or not, it is inevitable, and you must plan for rain, snow, cold, ice, winds and storms. A friend once told me that to fight it makes no sense, and so in the last couple of years I have made a conscious decision to see all the positive aspects. I now appreciate the time to hibernate inside my warm home and pursue other interests, putting the garden to rest and anticipating its renewal in the spring, the quietness and solitude of the landscape, sitting in front of the fireplace and reading, crisp walks on cold mornings, and most of all capturing its beauty for others to see… / Featured in Landscape Photography group on Jan. 1st 2009

Where do we go to in 2009? by jchanders
As we had mist again this morning, my first new-year bicycle trip led me to one of our lanes for a misty lane shot. What could be more symbolic on the first day of the new year than such a misty lane where we cannot see our destination? Of course you know this lane by now with its spectacular beechtrees lining the broad former country-road leading from Hilversum to the country-house Gooilust at ’s-Graveland. Just imagine some 17th or 18th century carriage passing along here, with beautiful ladies sitting in them going to the ball at the country-house … Ah, imagination! So much history hidden between these trees. The stories they could tell! Yes, endless stories … Hilversum, 1st January 2009, 9.56 am / Nikon D80, Nikkor 18-200 mm at 60 mm / F 8, 1/20, ISO 800 Here a picture taken in June from just about the same spot, though at a much earlier hour:

Hoary Foggy Frost in the Country by mnkreations
Hoary frost very early in the morning as the sun was beginning to rise. It did not take long for the frost to dissipate after the sun climbed higher into the sky. Within an hour or so it was gone! / Featured in the “Landscape Photography” and “Seasonal ‘Scapes” groups. Thank you!

I Planted a Field of Lupine in My Dreams by Wayne King
Lupine and maple tree, Sugar Hill NH. Photographed with Canon Digital Rebel EOS300, 35mm Canon lens Wayne D. King’s images are a celebration of life, blending the real and the surreal to achieve a sense of place or time that reaches beyond the moment into a dreamlike quintessentialism designed to spark an emotional response. Using digital enhancement, handcrafting, painting, and sometimes even straight photography, King seeks to take the viewer to a place that is beyond simple truth to where truth meets passion, hope and dreams. © Wayne D.

About This Group
This groups is simply for landscape photography.
Please abide by this group’s guidelines below.
Landscape Group Guidelines
What is a landscape for me its an image that defines a feeling of a place, the dictionary says natural scenery as seen in a broad view I think for this group it must be quite general but also has to be relevant to the group. I hope it will be place were we can showcase our best work and improve our photographic skills .
Firstly I would encourage all participants to place as much information about equipment, settings and post processing as possible in there description.
Secondly don’t swamp the group a couple of images a day max.
Rich.
