The winter window has two sides, one for the watcher and one for the white drifts, and the experience of winter is often not one or the other but both at once.

Alec Absinthe’s enchanting image, If I Could Be Where You Are, is today’s mesmerizing Picture of the Day for the Once Upon a Snowflake round of Enchantment. This magical artwork captures a man lost in thought, peering out frosted windows at a serene winter night. Bathed in a palette of cool blues, the scene feels dreamy, frosty, and utterly magical.
The centerpiece of the image is the radiant Ceramic Reindeer Taxidermy by HEXtraordinary, its enchanting glow illuminating the space with whimsical charm. Surrounding it, QE Home’s Frosted Star Decor Full Set adds an extra layer of holiday sparkle, completing the magical ambiance.
The man, seated comfortably in a chair from LouChara’s Frostine Collection, holds a warm cup from LORE’s Yule Cider Bowl, a delightful addition to the cozy winter tableau. Nearby, Laminak’s Hot Chocolate Kettle Drinks Tray sits elegantly on the table, tempting us with visions of sweet, festive indulgence.
Against the wall, Harshlands’ PBR-enabled Cello is beautifully displayed, its exquisite craftsmanship enhancing the room’s wintry elegance. Outside the frosted window, subtle yet captivating elements like Titans’ Divine Fountain, Birth’s Ice Sculptures, MoonSha’s Single Pine, and 3rd Eye Perceptions’ Winterfrost Path & Lanterns hint at a magical world just beyond view.
Alec Absinthe has woven these elements into a visual story brimming with seasonal enchantment. The glowing stars, frosted tones, and the contemplative figure peering through the windows create an image that feels both intimate and expansive—a perfect ode to winter’s quiet magic.
