Beautiful, Mary. Like the splash of yellow.
Mary MacADNski: I mentioned to the wearer what a good colour it was in the white snowy woods.

This must be very healthy exercise Mary
Mary MacADNski: It's very good. We were out an hour and a half.

The yellow jacket works very well
Mary MacADNski: It's great for finding her.
Looks as though there's been a storm through there at some point!
Mary MacADNski: There have been many.

I'm sure Mary, it sounds hard work.
Mary MacADNski: I love it! Works some different muscles and is good cardio.
Beautiful Mary. Love the snow on the trees. Must have been hard walking in all that snow.
Mary MacADNski: We all have snowshoes on which are made for the job. Fun thing to do in the snow. You can get to places where you can't comfortably go in winter, like in the woods.

Oh wow, lovely!! I've never tried snowshoeing but it sounds like fun.

I hear that the east coast is getting some considerable snow falls this winter, New York especially. Is it heading your way, I wonder?
Mary MacADNski: You would love it! We have been getting more snow than has become usual the last few years. We got a lot more snow in the 'olden days'.
Snowshoeing is my kind of winter sport, Mary. This image vividly brings back the feel, sight & sound of trekking through a winter wonderland on snowshoes. Very nice, indeed.
Mary MacADNski: I like it too. Most people I know cross country ski and I had grown up snowshoeing instead. Made me different here but new advances in snowshoes have made it become more popular. There are dedicated groups here now.
Looks like hard work and good fun at the same time Mary.
Mary MacADNski: More fun than work really.
Sounds quite challenging. I love the combination of woods and snow. Lovely shot Mary
Mary MacADNski: I love it. Cross country skiers also get to experience the wonderful joy of being out there too but I'm not as fond of it as of snowshoes. Both are popular.
I would love to have deep snow to try this Mary, great fun exercise smile
Mary MacADNski: It's fabulous! Come on over. I'll take you out.
It must be fun..That is,if your fit Mary.
Mary MacADNski: Yes you must be fit but it is very good cardio-vascular exercise thus making you fit.
I love the picture and the colour, but not the thought of the snowshoeing. Brrr!
Mary MacADNski: It's not cold, Sheila. You dress for it. This is the truth: Later in the session I was between these two. Th woman called to her husband, "Be careful, dear. There's a half naked woman chasing after you". I had my top almost off, I was so hot! We were just starting out here.
This looks like Canada should look in the wintersmile (To someone who has never been there)
Mary MacADNski: Ha! that's funny. I have often said of a photo, "That looks typically English, (or Spanish or French)", and I've never been there.

Mary MacADNski: I hope you get out on snowshoes, Peter.
