Description
This was taken during the huge snowfall we had on Monday morning in Woking, Surrey UK at 05:30.Its of the HG Wells memorial statue- fighting machine, covered in snow!
The snow and low cloud was reflecting so much light i didnt have to use any flash. This is the reason for the glorious colour. The whole area was a beautiful orange hue.
I then took the photo and put an ink outline filter on it in Photoshop 7.
We NEVER get snow this bad in Woking, ive never seen snow like it in 20 years or more.
comments welcome

Very impressive. If I had seen that so early in the morning (and was possibly slightly drunk), my heart might have stopped. Good work
