Snow on the Pansies


Casino Square and more of Maggie Calkin's great photos, all showing the ever-changing light show on the Christmas trees.

Unusual to see the square so deserted but not surprising considering the weather. In the last photo, you see the scene reflected in Anish Kapoor's Sky Mirror. Thanks again, Maggie!

These look like scenes from a fanciful movie. Stunning. Upon seeing these photos, I now have the Christmas spirit.

Love that first shot with the spring flowers in front.
It looks surreal.
Great composition!

Daisies and snow... quite a juxtaposition here. I like it!

The casino looks absolutely magical with colors and lighting! Yes, pansies don't like snow...

Oh, Jilly! Please thank Maggie for letting you share these past two days photos with us. They're so magical, I feel like I've just stepped into a fairy tale!

I always delight in seeing pansies peeking through a covering of snow. They seem so out of place in that context! Lovely images again. Thank Maggie for me! Regular programming will recommence when?

Happy Holidays to you and your family, Jilly!

The pansies here love the snow. The colors in the photo mirror those in the lights and building. All just gorgeous!

Snow never appeared more lovely with the reflected colors.

What an odd juxtaposition - pansies in the snow!

WHAT "Global Warming"?!

Most beautiful. Snow even!

Now that's thick snow falling! I particularly like the blueish photo, there's something really mysterious about it.
