Inside-Out

By Cathythompson
Picture Once again Holley at Roses and Other Gardening Joys has inspired me. What can we see from the windows of our own homes when the weather is awful, or we are too tired or ill to go outside?
The view from my windows always lifts me, in spite of the fact that I can't see anything of my garden and plants from inside the house. Even when I lived in an upstairs flat in London, the view was fascinating and ever-changing. Amazing rooftops but, more importantly to a fledgling gardener, I revelled  in a magnificent specimen of the Wichurana rambler 'Alberic Barbier'. He made a small shed look like a palace in his short season.
It was snowing when I took this (colour) photo. You can just about see the snowflakes.  At the moment I am greeted with a forest transformed by the beauty of frost when I draw the curtains each morning. I watch it from the early morning fog through to the afternoon sunshine.
What inspires you when you look from the 'inside out'? I would love to see your photographs and enjoy your view.
