I confess that these images are from the archives but it is very much what it looks like out there right now. I will venture out later but as we woke up to -20° Celsius I’m waiting for the mercury to rise a little. Enjoy the last few days of 2011!

That’s a lot of pretty snow. And just look at the last shot. Poor snow holding those thin branches to stay up. But very cool, and interesting. 🙂 🙂
Thank you Nandini!
beautiful, Beautiful, BEAUTIFUL
Aw thanks Brian. 🙂
Like the shot of the stump and the contrast of solidity and delicacy. Now get those sorrels on and go out and get a beaver tail. Its only -18 now!
I want some snow..:(
Beautiful. They revived the memories.
Squeaking sound of the snow on every steps.
Chilly air going up in the nose and freezing nasal hairs 😀
(Then having trouble of the condensations on the lens)
Still, how precious the moment.
Thank you. You brought back the moment and its atmosphere.
archive or not, they’re still magical.
I like that last one 🙂 Some of the other have too much lighting, as the snow is already very bright.
It looks really cold and fresh. Have you posted the photo number 3 before? I feel like I’ve seen it somewhere.
Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr….!
But very pretty. =)
I love them all Karen. They are so well composed. Especially: the 3rd for its shadows, and the last for its delicacy. Thank you for sharing and look forward to your upcoming shots 🙂 Don’t venture outside too quickly – 20 minus is COLD!
Great sun play in these snow shots, Karen! Stay warm and Happy New Year!
I love snow! These are beautiful, have a Happy New Year!
Your photos are beautiful. Archive photos are always good, they are the ones we ourselves love and they bring back memories. Happy New Year!
Cheers,
Shez
Need some of this here. At the moment, dull and wet!
that third image is stunning, happy new year!
The Third Image is outstanding! The shadows form beautiful lines to give a nice sense of perspective.
The 2nd and 3rd are my favorites!! Wonderful lighting 🙂 Well done, as always!!!!

These are beautiful Karen. No snow in England so far this season.
Breathtaking
Real class, Karen … and you’ve got snow! Beautiful images and beautiful natural lighting! They are all stunningly beautiful!
