I have to admit (as much as I hate to) that the snow has brought with it some really beautiful landscapes.
And, as the boys still need their early morning emptying walk, I was out there at 8 am; pocket camera at the ready.
A diverse offering twixt the interesting, the unusual, and the amusing.
You got some outstanding pictures, Cro. The sky is wonderful.. They have that Wow factor!
ReplyDeleteGreat post!
I would have been furious if I'd forgotten my camera. Pure luck!
DeleteFantastic sky - just think, if you'd stayed snuggled in bed keeping warm, you would have missed it. I hope the boys appreciate your venturing out in all that snow. It is pretty bad here today too.
ReplyDeleteI've just come back from today's walk. No beautiful sky, same amount of snow, and everything very CRISP. I fear it'll last.
DeleteI love snow in France (it means that we are quite safe from the military advances of Napoleon).
ReplyDeleteWe do live on an amazing little planet. I imagine that the dogs were grateful for not being Dachshunds.
In 1812, when Napoleon waged his Russian Campaign, he lost nearly HALF A MILLION MEN. Maybe that's why he's still such a hero here in France!
DeleteThat sky is amazing but that orange wall hasn't faded at all has it.
ReplyDeleteSORE THUMB.
DeleteAmazing sunset. Your pictures are uplifting. I forgot to take my camera yesterday, and regretted it. Thought I might go back today, but alas, no sun this morning :o(
ReplyDeleteStunning phographs. Everyone likes my Cro Magnon Orange wall here, by the way, but I agree while here in a tropical environment it looks good, where you are an orange wall does stick out like a sore thumb!
ReplyDeleteLovely pics, stunning skies. Snow here too, people are sledging down the Tor. 2 years back, we spotted someone skiing down the slopes!
ReplyDeleteDogs love it, they're digging lots of holes.
They are beautiful photos, and I'm envious of your snow! We have none here in my corner of the world, and I'd love some to change up the gray and brown there seems to be so much of.
ReplyDeleteI have a comment on the first photo and its not printable...

Spectacular !
ReplyDeleteGorgeous photos, Cro! Now I'm REALLY jealous of your snow! Send some westward, please!
ReplyDeleteAnd now the bloody compact Royce won't start. How I hate winters; snow, the cold, cars, batteries, gloves, thermal vests, etc.
ReplyDeleteLovely photos Cro. Snow can be beautiful but a curse if you need to travel. You must be very disappointed if your son had to cancel his visit. Snow has now arrived in Wiltshire and we are forced to cancel a long anticipated visit to the Theatre Royal Bath with our daughter this evening. Bah!
ReplyDeleteYou need to get some street urchin to paint that orange out
ReplyDeleteVery nice photos. Our snow will melt today, but it was beautiful while it lasted. I pulled a "Lady Magnon" and made a snowman! Couldn't help myself!!
ReplyDeleteThat's the best thing about dogs...they find joy in everything, as long as they're with you.
ReplyDeleteOh how beautiful......not the orange wall but the rest of the pics.
ReplyDeleteLovely sky pix. Orange wall, well, i think like Briony, my comment is unprintable.
ReplyDeleteWOW! That sky is breathtaking. Too bad you had to put up with the cold to see it. But even the snow is beautiful. So pristine. (But I don't want any, thank you.)
ReplyDeleteOhhhh dear. I know how much you love snow. But isn't it pretty? :)
ReplyDeletebeautiful scenes...as long as you're going to have snow, you might as well find ways of appreciating it!
