21 Winter Wonderland Images

Winter Wonderland


There are strange and mysterious sounds
When the winds of winter blow,
The long nights are crystal clear and cold,
And the fields and meadows are covered with snow.
The stars are frosty against the sky,
And the wind's whistle is shrill,
As the snow blows against the house
And drifts against the hill.
Yet, I like to see during the winter
A white carpet on the ground,
To plod aimlessly in the deep snow,
where deer tracks abound.
I like to feel the stillness
Of a crisp winter's night,
Watching a full moon rise over the horizon,
Exposing a winter wonderland beautiful and bright.

24 Awe-Inspiring Pictures of Icebergs

Floating pieces of land that look like little islands of ice are always an amazing sight. Icebergs can be quite large with the world's largest iceberg recorded measuring 295 km long and 37 km wide. This iceberg was named B15 and it was bigger than the island of Jamaica before it broke up into smaller pieces. 

Icebergs can often form interesting shapes. Following are some of the most beautiful pictures of icebergs.
