Wednesday - 12 steps to spring

This post, this is my participation in the contest, organized by a wonderful, creative photographer - @tattoodjay, hello to you, from overseas!

Last Wednesday, @tattoodjay correctly noted that without breaking the quarantine rules, it is very difficult to make a series of photographs.

Personally, for me, the last walks were short, or, very, very short.

A small path by elevator, exit the entrance, turn around the corner, go under the arch and, after making another hundred steps, get into the store.

Then, in reverse sequence, go back.

I tried to make a photo stream, one such short walk, but interesting.

I called this post - 12 steps to spring.

Namely, 12 steps separated winter and spring.

The porch in which I live faces north. Two days ago, snow fell. He does not melt in the shade of the house and here, indeed, it is very cold.

I don’t really want to relax, sitting on such a bench, you can freeze.

As I said, I had to go under the arch, or, through a tunnel, 12 steps long. There, in front of me, a miracle awaited me, or rather, there, the real spring, warmed, by the rays of the sun, lived.

I saw blooming flower beds, after, a second ago, I felt the cold of winter!

Standing in the tunnel, I turned back, there was still a fierce winter. It was a real, thoughtless portal between the two seasons.

I decided this step to be significant, because, he, will allow me to be in the middle of spring!

If you read the Lost World, then you will understand me, I experienced the same feelings that the heroes of the novel experienced.

For a long time already, I have not seen such a sharp contrast between lifeless winter and spring.

If, Wednesday, should be remembered, or, a walk on Wednesday, then this happened.

The south side of the house gave the plants a screen that heated in the sun and gave off heat, protecting from harsh winters.

There, behind the walls of this house, winter is hiding, she wants to break into here, but stumbles upon an obstacle.

Daffodils do not know that they are, a few steps from the terrible cold.

I went to the store, and, it was an interesting, but short walk.

I have to go back to winter.

For my publications, I do not use stock photographs, it is fundamentally important for me to use photographs that I have made with my own hands for publication and I can name them - authorial work.
