Default A Rare Snowy Day

We don't get a lot of snow in the North West of England but today has been a different story. It started about 11.00pm last night and continued on and off until 4.00pm today. We have around 6 inches in our back garden. Managed to get out with the camera and grab some images. enjoy

Nice perspective on the the angeled shots, I like the DoF and knowing that you have been as cold as me today ... Nice set... Was worth the frozen toes! TFS

Cracking shots Tim! Love the 3rd especially, lovely colour contrast. My kid sister is all excited, she loves the snow and just emailed me to say she'd been sent home from work (Liverpool city centre) a couple of hours ago and was going to build a snowman! (She's almost 30!)

Really like the second one, the last one has just a bit too much blue Timor for me but nice set. I did the same today and went a wee stroll in the snow with my camera, will post some photos up later

Hi Tim lovely set, I especially love the first 1, we got a fair amount of snow settling at the moment, so might be able to get some pics tomorrow.
