And Winter Came (1)

The first snow is here. On the east coast of Sweden they've had a lot more (really a lot). Here, just about enough to cover the ground, and make the streets and walkways treacherously icy. But Monday afternoon was sunny, and I ventured out for a while (with studded boots + walking poles for support)... (Saving some photos for another day, as for some reason I got trouble with uploading them half way into this post.) The title I borrowed from a favourite CD by Enya.

I like Enya, and have at least one if her C.D.'s. I did not recognize the title of this song, but recognized it as soon as I played it. SO glad you got home safe!

Terra said...

That is the perfect winter mood song by Enya. The first winter snow is so pretty and clean, and I like the photo of the snow on the top of the rounded section of the iron fence.

Like Terra, I like the photo of the rounded fence, but they are all beautiful, of course. The first snow is always exciting, isn't it! We've yet to see ours, but I can wait :-)

Amazing winter scenes. Such beauty in the stillness of it!

Terra, the first snow does have a certain charm, at least when it's not too slushy - and when I don't really "have to" go anywhere special... :)

Meike, if it was up to me to decide, I could have waited a bit longer, too! ;-)

Thanks Mersad. I just linked this post to "Through My Lens" as well.

The snow pictures are absolutely gorgeous! I would not want to try and walk in it but I'm glad you took safety measures and did okay. It's absolutely beautiful.

Thanks Sandra. 3-4 winter months ahead; so will just have to (re)learn to cope with it the best I can... ;-)

DawnTreader said...

Thanks Ginny. I'd have turned around sooner if I hadn't felt safe!

The snow is such a contrast to all those beautiful summer photos! It's just as photogenic, and fun to walk through as long as it's safe underfoot.
I particularly like the photo with the lanterns.

Beautiful snow, we get it on the mountains here but not at ground level.
