The change to winter may bring a sense of cold and melancholy, or it may take one’s heart and thoughts to the warmth of a hearth, a hug, and time spent together. This image, from the Sangre de Cristo mountains of Colorado, shows the slow onset of winter as ice grows on a small pond spaced between Bear Lake and Blue Lake.
