Every photo tells a story.
What's your story?
I turned and looked at our tracks. We had gone so far, but I knew it wasn't anywhere close to how far we still had to go. The crusted snow crunched under my boots. I could feel the cold seeping in through my soles to my feet. It was cold and it would only get colder. We needed to find shelter and soon. But as I looked out over the barren, snow covered landscape, I knew shelter was out of reach and freezing to death was more likely.

Awesome work here! I could pisture and feel every word!
That's good! Feels like I'm right there.
The tracks still looked fresh. It wouldn't be long before I caught up with them, but then what? Self doubt reared its ugly head and voiced its opinion, "Your a writer from Colorado not a bounty hunter, Rebecca. What are you doing?" I shook my head, willing the doubt and fear out of my mind and forced myself to walk faster. I would find them first and then decide what to do. All I knew is that they weren't going to get away with this, I wouldn't let them.
I love it! Very nice writing. Thanks for sharing and joining it :)
Aww...thanks :)
Thanks so much! :) I love picture prompts...
What a fun idea! If I weren't so into my WIP right now, I'd use the mental energy to write something fun, but I'm just going to admire your work. Really fun, Rebecca!
Loved your story, Rebecca. :-) That picture reminds of the movie, The Empire Strikes Back. (I'm a nerd that way...) It was my favorite movie growing up, because I was always so enchanted by snow. (We didn't get a lot of it in Oklahoma.) The world gets so peaceful and isolated after a big snowfall. Everything seems so pure. The idea of an entire planet that remained in perpetual winter (and covered in snow!) blew my young mind. :-D
This reminds me of the time I went to a cabin in a snow mobile, except it was dark, we got lost, and I lost feeling in my feet for a while, but we found the place, built a fire and got all warmed up before frostbite set in. :)
Wow, I loved your story, very powerful and frightening. It's funny because I totally hate snow but I love photos of it and I think it is a great source of inspiration for stories. I just never want to have to actually deal with it LOL.
Hope you've had a great weekend!
Fantastic story! Even if it is a tad desolate and sad. The picture reminds me of how my yard looked like with the recent snow.
