    Well, that is how my garden looked this morning.

    Great Carin, love snow pics, probably more so, since we very rarely get any here.

    I agree. The only snow see is over the estuary on the hills

    Lovely shots.

    I remember when lived I Holland. The snow was like sand because they don't have the humidity that we do

    I particularly love the second shot here - the tracery of the branches is fantastic.

    I miss snow, and always hope that we will get at least a little every winter. We got a short period last winter but I didn't get any nice nature shots, just people on the street.

    Lovely shots, Carin!

    Can't see any snow in the Marienplatz yet, though there seems to be some showing in the Olympiapark. (Via webcams)

    There is something so evocative about a snow-fall. This quote abotu snow from James Joyce's short story "The Dead", from the collection " Dubliners" makes me feel similarly.

    "..a few light taps upon the pane made him turn to the window. It had begun to snow again. he watched sleepily the flakes, silver and dark, falling obliquely against the lamplight. The time had come for him to set out on his journey westward. Yes the newspapers were right: snow was general all over Ireland. It was falling on every part of the dark central plain , on the treeless hills, falling softly upon the Bog of Allen and, farther westward, softly falling into the dark mutinous Shannon waves. It was falling, too, upon every part of the lonely churchyard on the hill. It lay thickly drifted on the crooked crosses and headstones, on the spears of the little gate, on the barren thorns. His soul swooned slowly as he heard the snow falling faintly through the universe and faintly falling, like the descent of their last end, upon all the living and the dead"
