  "I leant upon a coppice gate When Frost was spectre-gray, And Winter's dregs made desolate the weakening eye of day, The tangled bine-stems scored the sky Like strings of broken lyres, And all mankind that haunted nigh Had sought their household fires" Thomas Hardy, from "The Darkling Thrush" February morning on the way to work, Haworth Rose Castle Cottage, Tarn Hows, The Lake District, Sept '24 East Riddlesden Hall, West Yorkshire Window at Haworth Old Post Office bistro Facebook Video 

  "CHORUS: Up in the morning's no for me, Up in the morning early; When a' the hills are cover'd wi' snaw, I'm sure it's winter fairly." - Robert Burns -  Frosty sunrise at Haworth churchyard Haworth, snow day No 6 Winter tree salutation Old & young (new) Brontë Bridge On Winter Afternoon  Black Bull, Haworth at dusk Facebook Winter Wonderland video 

"Oh Winter, ruler of th'inverted year,... I love thee, all unlovely as thou seemst, And dreaded as thou art. Thou hold'st the sun A prisoner in the yet undawning east, Shortening his journey between morn and noon, .....I crown thee the king of intimate delights, Fire-side enjoyments, home-born happiness, And all of the comforts that lowly roof Of undisturbed retirement and the hours Of long uninterrupted evening know." William Cowper, from "Winter Evening" Brontë Parsonage on dark, windy December afternoon  Brontë Parsonage Museum Candlelit For Christmas Festive window at Haworth Old Post Office bistro Boxing Day Low sun on Haworth Brow Moor 

  Now it is November Trees are nearly bare; Red and gold and brown leaves Scatter everywhere. Dark now, are the mornings Cold and frosty too; Damp and misty evenings Chill us through and through. Busy are all creatures, Winter food to hide; Nests to make all cosy Warm and safe inside. - Margaret Morgan -    5:30pm On Croft Street, Haworth, As Nights Draw In  Enchanted In Autumn - Myrtle Park, Bingley November Sun On Penistone Hill, Brontë Country  November Supermoon Over Haworth, Brontë Country The Magic Of Early Winter Mornings, Haworth, Brontë Country 

  I am thrilled to have a new book cover in Estonia. It is another foreign publication of the German crime novel Die Betrogene (The Deceived) by Charlotte Link; my image below has been licensed four times for this book title so far, as well as three more times for other book titles (see book cover label/tag). 

  "Fall, leaves, fall; die, flowers, away: Lengthen night and shorten day; Every leaf speaks bliss to me Fluttering from the autumn tree. I shall smile when wreaths of snow Blossom where the rose should grow; I shall sing when night's decay Ushers in a drearier day." - Emily Brontë -  Autumn on Church Street, Haworth Haworth Churchyard, sunny October morning Walking in autumn dusk, Haworth Main Street Misty October Morning In Haworth Samhain Self Portrait The Silent House, The Lake District Danger!
