Out in the Cold by olivetreeann

Out in the Cold

I think Bambi is a little upset with me. I wouldn't let him come inside and defrost by the fire. Jeff says he's covered in a blanket of snow, so he should be nice and warm anyway.
that is cool! it really looks like he is wrapped in a blanket!

Cool catch

@cvanheel Thanks Cade- that's exactly what Jeff said!
@kerristephens Thanks Kerri! Definitely cool!

Nice capture, but I think he would enjoy the warmth of a fire.

Aw! Bambi is wrapped up snugly in a blanket of snow!
January 22nd, 2012  
That's a great capture of the snow! She looks content.

love this shot!

This is lovely. The graceful curve of snow around Bambi and the one little leaf make a wonderful arrangement of shadow and light.

I love it .. it looks like a picture from a story book.. great picture
January 22nd, 2012  
Poor thing looks like he is frozen.
January 22nd, 2012  
So cute! Yes, you can write a story!

that's a beautiful blanket, looks cozy and warm, although we know it's far from being warm. i love snow in its pure form. snow in the city is not very nice. wonderful shot.

i love the softness of that snow and the gentle curves around Bamby. Looks like it snowed pretty heavily

@digitalrn Thanks Rick (o: !
@potsbypam Thanks Pam!

@mrssmith Thanks Carla- it's drifted a bit here, but we did get a nice coating!
@dmariewms Thanks Marie!
@allie912 Thank you Allison! Truth be told, I cloned out a distracting stick!
@inertie Thank you Inertia! It could turn into a story couldn't it?
@sarasdadandmom Thanks Terry- he was as still a a statue!
@eyetoeye Thanks Maria!
@summerfield Thank you Vikki!
@woot Thanks Davide!

That looks so cold
January 23rd, 2012  
@kimmistephens Thanks Kimmi- thankfully Bambi doesn't really feel it like we do!
January 23rd, 2012  
A wonderful picture..poor bambi ..he almost looks sad...
January 23rd, 2012  
And the snow blanket makes him look awesome. Beautiful shadow and lighting effect on this, Ann. And there he is . . sitting right out in your own backyard. Waiting to have his turn on 365. :)

@bruni Thank you Bruni- yes, he's much happier in the Spring when all the Lily of the Valley blooms around him!
@karenann Thanks Karenann- he is a slight bone of contention between Jeff and I. Jeff thinks it's ridiculous to have a cement deer ornament in the front garden when the real thing runs rampant in our woods. But I won't let him remove the "critters' because they came with the house! So we tease each other back and forth about them (we also have a cement raccoon in front too- different garden).
January 23rd, 2012  
Wow that looks like a lot of snow
January 23rd, 2012  
@bkbinthecity Thanks Brian- it wasn't really. We had about 5 inches, but this area had drifted and of course it's also covering Bambi's back giving the illusion of more than less.
January 23rd, 2012  
I'm so jealous of the snow!
January 23rd, 2012  
great capture that looks like deep snow
January 23rd, 2012  
He does look quite well tucked in under there! :)
January 23rd, 2012  
This one deserves the POP page......oh wow, what a catch. Love it, love it!! Instant fav!
January 23rd, 2012  
@lacedxxoo Thanks Lacy- it is pretty (for a while!).
@steeler Thanks Howard- not really. It's drifted here a little and it's covering the lawn decoration so it has the illusion of being deeper. We only got about 5 inches at the most.
@alia_801 Thanks Alia- if only I'd waited on the word snow!
@cimes1 Thank you so much Carole! I so appreciate the fav- it's put the sunshine in what is promising to be a very gray day!
January 23rd, 2012  
this just brings a smile!
January 23rd, 2012  
Perfect photo Ann!
January 24th, 2012  
@pandorasecho Thanks Dixie! I'm glad it did.
@nicolecampbell Thanks Nicole!
January 24th, 2012  
Great shot!! Love the clean pure snow!! FAV!
January 24th, 2012  
That IS a dinkum blanket! Looks cosy despite the fact it's snow!
January 24th, 2012  
He looks happy to me, think he is loving all the attention
January 24th, 2012  
@twinsplusone Thank you so much Sharon!!!!
@kloud Thanks Bonnie! I have not heard the word dinkum before, but I like how it sounds!
@melorac Thank you Carole- I think you might be right!
January 24th, 2012  
@twinsplusone @kloud @melorac
And thanks to you all for being such great 365 friends!!
January 24th, 2012  
That looks like a really thick layer! Poor Bambi!
January 25th, 2012  
@geertje Thanks Geertje- it's not as thick as it looks. It has drifted a bit here over Bambi's body. We received about 5 inches, but it has all melted thanks to two warmer days.
January 26th, 2012  
Very cool shot. The curve of the snow is lovely. Great grey tones.
January 27th, 2012  
@netkonnexion Thank you Netkonnexion. I think one of the things I liked about this shot after I took it was the minimal amount of color.
