A great group of images. Quite a few I would have captured myself. I would say #5 and #12 are my favorites.
Thanks so much, Mike! I’m happy you liked them. To be fair, not sure it’s possible to take a bad photo of Tahoe.
2,6,7,10 superb!
So glad you liked those! Thank you.
The wilderness landscape in 3 and the detailed crispness of 7 and 11 work great! 🙂 Lovely wintery snapshots, Bridgette <3
I’m glad you liked those photos. It’s a pretty beautiful place every season but I sure do love the way the snow clings to the trees. It makes me so happy.
Beautiful So. Lake Tahoe my hometown born in a concert building not a hospital in 1962 love to live there again thank you for the memories and the photos
That’s so cool! Thank you for sharing that. I wish I could live there too, but I really love living only a few hours away.
All of them Bridgette as I have never been in snow so it’s always a new experience 🙂
Never been in snow? That’s remarkable. I’m glad I could bring it to you a bit with these images.
Not so remarkable in a country that doesn’t have many places where it snows. Those places are a long way from where I live 🙂
All stunning photos, Bridgette 🙂
So glad you like them! Thank you.
Wow, photos 3, 10, and 12 grab me, such a beautiful set, Bridgette! Gorgeous. ❤️😊
You are so kind! Thank you, John. It’s hard to take a bad photo of that gorgeous place.
You’re very welcome, Bridgette! I’ve never been up there, it’s something like a 500-mile drive. Maybe I’ll hope on a flight someday.
You should! I’d love to see your shots.
Thank you, Bridgette! 😊
These ALL speak to me—as does Rumi’s words!These are stunning, Bridgette! ❄️🩵
I’m so happy! Thank you!!
You’re welcome ☺️
All the photos:) Each one is beautiful.
I’m so glad you think so, thank you!
All gorgeous.
2, 6, 11 tops!
Thank you! I was fascinated with how the snow piles on the trees and plants. It’s so beautiful.
#5 does it for me! I have a partially complete children’s book with a sketch that very much resembles that picture! It’s like you took it write from my head! Beautiful photos! Many of the others also bring up different feeling when observing, but mostly that lone pine tree!
*right not write! Sorry for the typo!!
I read right over it ❤️
That’s incredible! I’d love to see the sketch sometime. I sure love a tree all alone in the forest-either taller than the rest or maybe a different color. When it stands apart it always makes me smile.
All of them. So jealous.
Thank you. I am sure you have lots of beautiful snowy lakes near you in MN. You just need a day off to explore!
It’s cold! We’re hitting subzero overnight tonight, something around -4°F… Brown Christmas, frigid January.
Yikes! I can’t even imagine.
Love 2, 3, and 10.
Thank you! I have a feeling you’d love Tahoe.

Come with me as we explore!
So beautiful words written in quote!
All the great photos. I much like blog second pic.
Thanks! So glad you like the quote and that photo.
Beautiful. I heard Tahoe got hit hard with Mother Nature’s snow.
It was my first time driving with chains (scary!) They had a lot more snow last year I think, but the season isn’t close to over yet.
I like especially where the snow and the water meet.
A question – do you have HDR software? We have snow quite rarely here but I got some really good results when I took some snow pics. Brought out detail in the sky, especially.
I do! For some reason I always think it looks so harsh and I’m always softening everything.
Yes it does kinda take images to extremes.
Beautiful shots.
Thank you so much!
You’re welcome.
Don’t make me choose! 😄 They all speak to me, for different reasons. Thank you for sharing this gorgeous part of the country. Beautiful photos.
You are so kind! Thank you. It’s really such a magical place.
Awesome photos. I particularly loved #1 with the footprints.
Thanks. Those are my footsteps as I trudged through the snow to get some shots.
Bridgette, The photos are all special in there own way, making picking one quite hard, but I think the first one with the foot prints jumps out, you get a sense of mystery imagining who has gone by and why😁🤗
Thank you! Those were my footprints and I liked how they marked where I had been and perhaps signified where I might go in the New Year.
Bridgette, Foot prints mean only one thing to me a journey going forward.Good luck to us all may it be a happy one 🙏❤️
I loved #7 and that quote by Rumi is excellent!
I love that quote too! Thank you.
I liked 7 and 12. It looks like you had an enriching time.
I really did! It’s always magical to visit the snow but I’d never like to live in it.
Yes, it requires a different type of living! Lots of warm clothes etc.
Your images are simply wonderful!!!
Thank you so much!
You’re most welcome🙏
It is my pleasure. ❤️
Think I got rules for most everything, although most, I don’t even know what they are. Hardly fair. That’s rule one. Many fine photographs, I surely couldn’t do. Some simply exceptional, more charm than I can resist.
#1 I’m surprised, but tracks “coming to me”, rather than away, is brilliant, welcoming, engaging. Yep.
#6 in a scene of white and dark, the presence of clear green wakes up the otherwise sleepy mountain snow. Beautiful.
Very very honorable mentions. #3, #5, #8 where I feel the forest.
Good work. Do hope folks enlarge because there’s more more to see.
You are probably the only person who noticed the tracks are coming toward the camera. I turned around and took the photo of my own tracks…felt somewhat more intimate that way. Glad you liked that one.
I’m so glad you liked so many of these. It was really so magical there.
Beautifully captured 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I’m so glad you liked these! Thank you.
