Cold and snow can be disheartening, but there are interesting winter images out there. At times there can be an early snow before all the leaves have fallen. This can bring an interesting contrast between the fall leaf color in an otherwise black and white of snow and tree trunks.
I live close to Lake Michigan and with a large body of water when a cold front comes in and the weather gets frigid, interesting ice sculptures can form on a windy night when waves pound on any vegetation that is near the shoreline.
A wonderful opportunity comes when storm clouds start to clear and patches of blue and white appear in the sky, especially if it is early morning or early evening.
