Not much flowering around here now. A few violas. Thought I should capture some of the foliage and fuzz before they’re gone. Expect mostly seedheads and buds for the next three months.

Wow, that is truly art!

Beautiful posts as usual. The first one is my favorite, but #2 is full of movement. Is it Jan 20th yet?
Some of that fuzz looks familar. I like your scans this month. It won’t be long and I won’t even be able to find leaves to scan. There is a lot of mush here.
Hiya Craig,
I have finally put 2 and 2 together: You are the Ithaca blogger as well as the scan bloomday blogger.
I have to categorize bloggers to keep them straight in my head, what with all the blog titles, post titles and user names, I get somewhat confused.
You have been going round my mind as a twin so far. All solved now 😉
I’m with Les: the top one is handsome. Look forward to the spring bulbs one. I reckon the Finger Lakes won’t show these until May? In Corning we had brown lawns until the end of April.
Oh. My. Gosh. These are gorgeous, Craig. I’d really love to turn the top one upside down and make it into a book cover. But what could one write inside that would do it justice?
More beautiful scans. Before we had a scanner, I arranged a group of variegated leaves and took a shot of them for a newspaper column on that subject. Was thinking it might be time to revisit the topic and your image certainly gets me thinking. Last year we set an all-time snow record so I am not even thinking about what comes next here weatherwise. But I did like the sound of that bulb scan?!
What a wonderful way to display the color of the leaves. Beautiful and the seed pods were great too.
NICE! You should charge Nan Ondra a lot for that book cover image 😉 (and I bet she could do it justice).
Craig, these images are just beautiful and well composed. It’s fun to see them after so many flowers. You show that there is plenty of beauty around now.
I like the bottom one because it reminds me of your bleached grass seed heads and frost on the prairie. It feels cold. I agree with the others that the first one would make a great book cover.
I love your scans! Now, on to the next blog. I’m trying to look at everyone’s GBBD blogs!
Here’s hoping winter goes by quickly!

Love the viburnum and heuchera foliage, assuming that is what some of that is there. Have to try the scanning thing some time.
those scans are just amazing!
I love the scans for this month – I think they are some of my favorites!
