A Winter Walk

Photograph by Marisela Murcia Navarro, National Geographic Your Shot

While walking in the countryside "enjoying the air, sounds, and colors of winter," Your Shot contributor Marisela Murcia Navarro suddenly caught this sight. "I stopped and felt that nature had given me a gift," she says. A native of Spain, Murcia had been visiting her father's region of Manchuela in Castile-La Mancha and, during long walks with camera in hand, found "scenes that seemed out of the pages of a story."

2. Great shot.

It reminds me of a Bev Doolittle painting.

5. Thank you for link ohheckyeah

I fell in love with her work when I was in Arizona.
