I love it, but hate it!
Just a smattering, seen through the conservatory window
It’s coming! It’s coming!
Run upstairs and look out of the window
Let’s check out the park
So pretty and ethereal
Not frozen- yet!
Water glistens on the tree
There I am, but look at that sky!
Droplets were melting and blowing off the trees
Just one romantic couple
Noone sitting on the benches today
A delicate snow bush
Over the hedge, the bowling green
No tea and cake in the pavilion today
The melancholy clock tower
You know what I’m talking about. Magical soft fat flakes that have me rushing out to play. Followed by grumpy Alice a day or two later, when it’s turned to a slippery grey skating rink.

What beautiful pics! I’m in the tropics, so this is a complete turn-around of scenery for me 😉

Have I ever told you how much I love towers? :O and as for snow – I have a love/hate relationship with it – it is needed but in right measures and at the right time, and its timing is always wrong – grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. I loved all of your snowy samples 🙂

Thanks, hon. It’s quite an ordinary looking clock tower most days, transformed with a moody sky and a dusting of snow.

My thoughts exactly! I love snow…but also dread it, and even hate it sometimes!
Just stay inside and keep warm…and enjoy the beauty of it from the inside looking out!!

Nice when you have young uns to play with, Jess. Could have done with a toboggan here yesterday, but it’s gone all mush today.

Lovely indeed. We’ve got lots on the ground & lots more falling even at this moment, AND temps in the teens below zero (F). Oy. It’s keyboard and coffee for me today.

Thank you, Sartenada. The snow lends that particular tower a bit more atmosphere- on a sunny day it’s nothing special.

Thanks Gemma. It was a lovely afternoon, and the trees kept spattering us with water. Great fun. Bit more bleak and grey today. I went to zumba and meant to walk back through the park to take some deeper snow shots, but I chickened out!

Hope you got the slide show to work today, Viv? I intended to come back that way after zumba and take some shots of much deeper snow, but it’s not very nice underfoot, so I gave up and got the bus like a wuss.

🙂 Ditto for me, Jo. I left two snow shovels north, one in New Hampshire and the other in Nebraska. I will never ever need them again!!!
My three-year-old London grand-daughter is posted on my facebook page. She is playing in the snow and has a big snowball in her hands.
