While I sit in a cool room on a hot day in Cape Town with the blinds drawn against a noonday glare, preparing to write an article with tips on taking a good picture (...um), may I direct you to some cool white winter images of one of my favourite places in the world: The Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge.
The real photographer in the family (no, not the cat), hiked out there on a snowy day last week to see what he could see. And through his lens the world is wonderful. The pictures are silent and cold and austerely beautiful.
The bay is certainly deserving of some big love. You know for a second, when I saw the picture and the snow, I thought you were going to reminisce about a day there last winter. The snow on the ground was so brief. You are not missing a winter wonderland this year at all.
