Ah how I miss the Netherlands. Long long time ago, I was there. QQ
As for the shot, breath taking; the sunlight is at such a hue it feels comforting to look at even though it is so cold.

Very nice. The trees have a somewhat odd color because of the combination of snow and sunlight.
Love those birds on top of the tree, too.

Wonderful scenery

I'm longing for some colder weather in stead of what we get now.

We seem to get just a few cold days now. But that is not really the thing which you are waiting for, I am afraid.

I hope you will not mind my recommending also to visit my other active gallery on RedBubble again:

Buy my art

That's not what I'm waiting for indeed. I think I should travel to the Ardennes this weekend to see some snow.

I'm keeping an eye on your RB gallery

This may sound trite but they look almost like cotton candy!

Or mashed potatoes.

Actually it is not snow, but hoarfrost. Though it does look very much alike.

imera In reply to jchanders [2008-01-17 08:42:03 +0000 UTC]

It looks alike but I don't care that much about if it's not snow, I care about if snow is here and there is no snow here

lightthinker In reply to imera [2008-01-18 04:33:22 +0000 UTC]

No snow here either any more, nor hoarfrost. Just RAIN! But that keeps the country green, so why complain ...?
