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!

  7. 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!

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

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