Veil of Tears – Photography by Mary Mikawoz – Click on image or link to see the bigger picture.
This is a photograph that I took of the winter sun low in the sky through the window. It has an hazy effect and had a melancholy feel about it. However, what I love about it is that it serves as a framework for the poem I wrote. I wrote it for those who are hurting and missing a loved one at this time of year, this one is for YOU!
Veil of Tears
by Mary Mikawoz
As days change into nights And nights into days We see the passage of time Moments slipping by unnoticed
We trudge on in snow-laden streets With cold in our feet, face and hands But not in our hearts…
We remember those who have passed on From one realm to another We rejoice in their memories And of the substantial love they gave us
We can choose to stand in a veil of tears Wiping the currents of moisture from our eyes Or simply initiate a wealth of gratitude For their Past Presence in our lives!
With my art, I am often in a zen-type of mood and with my photography, I feel as if I am inspired by God or the Universe to capture these moments in time.

Panoramic Winter Scene – Photography by Mary Mikawoz – Click on image or link to see the bigger picture.
This is a panoramic scene of Lake Winnipeg just as freeze up is starting to happen. Even though Lake Winnipeg is the 10th largest freshwater lake in the world, it gets so cold here that semi-trucks can drive on the ice roads. People go ice fishing as a sport and enjoyment all winter long, when safe to do so.
The sky was particularly playful this day at this time. “It was dancing and swaying to the music.” It is just like Johnny Rivers was singing to the clouds in the sky.

I took this photograph in the early evening as the setting sun was resting in the West. The leaves are long gone from the deciduous trees and the confers are elegant as ever in winter time.
The trees are living organisms that help take carbon dioxide from the air and convert it into life-giving oxygen and breath for planet Earth. Thanks to God and the Universe for creating such a perfect and harmonious system of give and take.
Aside from the orange and gold colours in the sky, I also see peach and pink hues.

This is a photograph of beautiful horses which was taken in the middle of winter in the Interlake area of Manitoba, Canada. Straw is usually bedding for lying on and hay is for feeding on so I am not sure what these horses are doing as they seem to be doing both. Perhaps, it is just grass. I hope you like my farm picture.
It has been awhile since my year of posting an image each day which was very stressful but I did it! It is time to continue as I can not keep myself from creating and capturing Divine Moments in Time!

In this photograph, the winter sunlight blazons through the sky and passes through the sunflowers as if touching and kissing them good-bye before the sun sets. I love this black and white photo because it looks like it was painted in an artistic fashion and yet it is a photograph.

This photograph is entitled “Golden Harvest.” I wanted us to remember the good times of harvesting.
We are in winter now where life is dormant and in hibernation mode. In spring, we will plant the seeds and in summer, we will tend and nurture them. In autumn, we will harvest the goods. It is a yearly cycle and routine which we can endeavour to pattern our lives around. We are now enjoying the produce of our efforts with these times of celebration. This is not a typical image for this time of year but it is my “Horn of Plenty” and I hope you enjoy and appreciate the golden harvest we are enjoying at Christmas time.

I took this photograph this afternoon near Gimli, Manitoba over the substation. The sun is fairly low in the sky as it is winter time. The Sundogs on either side of the sun indicate that it is cold outside or that it will be. Both are true in this case. With temperatures in the minus 20 degrees Celsius range, or minus 4 Fahrenheit, you know it is cold.
Here is the current forecast from Environment Canada, “A bitterly cold north wind will bring extreme wind chills of minus 40 to much of southern Manitoba overnight and into Thursday morning.”
I like the brilliant star effect around the sun and the way the Sundogs are like little rainbow arcs around at the sun’s sides.

Winter’s Coming
I know we have some time left but based on the colder temperatures and more precipitation we have had lately, we will be in winter sometime soon. The crops have already been harvested and only stubble remains in the fields.
The hay bales have been processed and soon there will be a layer of snow on it. There is fun in the winter time to be had though too. It is something you learn to encompass in your life and live with the best you can. Time to prepare.

I took this on one of my hikes and found beauty in the decaying of trees in the forest. From the old and death, comes rejuvenation and regrowth. It is a positive way of looking at life as we all have seasons that come and go as winter is to spring as to summer and to autumn.
I like the various states the wood is in and also the way the flowers have come to fruition amongst the rotten state of affairs.

This is an aerial photograph of one of my trips back home. It highlights a river path snaking its was through the country side. Only a few wisps of clouds remain. This was in the winter time but we were far enough south that there wasn’t any snow on the ground.
