Discovering Winter’s Hidden Colors

Winter can be a dark time of year. The days are short and the sky can be overcast and grey. Colour drains from the land. Everything seems to have turned monotone.

Yet there is still colour. There will be days of blue skies and bright sunshine. There can be glorious sunrises and sunsets (and with the shorter days you don’t have to get up too early to catch the rising sun!) And there can be colour in the details too – the berries, the lichen, the last of the leaves hanging on, even a cluster of snails!

Here are a few of the images I made over Christmas 2025 celebrating the colours of winter.
