Weekly Photo Challenge: Hope

Posted on

This week’s photo challenge is hope. Many things inspire and give us hope in life. I thought of many ideas, so I may highlight additional photos later. Last week, there was a snow storm and I captured this vibrant kale growing. It provided hope that even though it’s winter there is color and spring will come soon.

I took this photo earlier today with frost. I thought it appeared lovely with the ice crystals that the plant hopefully continues to grow.

    I like the one with the frost, but the snowy ones are just stunning! Great work!

      The photo doesn’t capture the frost as well as I hoped, but it’s still lovely. Thanks for your comment.

    I really like the way the snow sits on the kale in the first photo.

    Beautiful images….You made me remember the harsh winter in Houston 2 years ago. Just day before the snow , the Canas were in a kaleidoscope of bright , colorful blooms and the palms trees lush in greens…a week after…hardly a few survive….but those few gave some sense of hope. When Spring came…those few gave a reason to smile.

      If you look closely brightness and color can be found anywhere. Thanks for your comment.

    OMG … these photos are outstanding. I love the clarity and the colors as well as the way the crystals on them from the weather sparkle.
    These are visual joy.
    Very nice,

      Yes, the day was filled with so much whiteness which is beautiful, but I loved the bright purple kale I discovered. Thanks for your comment.
