We had a little bit of snow overnight, but unfortunately we also had a lot of wind so the trees are bare. And the little bit means that dry flower stems and grasses are sticking out through the snow, so we are still not talking about the snowscapes I’ve been waiting for. But, one has to be grateful for the little things, so I happily shovelled the snow from the driveway and then set out with the camera.

And so it happened that my only photos from today were from the small nameless creek I have visited many times before. Argh! There has got to be some other pictures to take than water all the time! I just can’t find them…

Speaking of water, I ventured out on the ice at the Kyrkbytjärnen lake. I’ve seen that the ice has been building up steadily despite the weather, and I’ve also seen people on the lake so the ice should hold for sure. I kept close to the shore though… and then I heard it crack under my foot. A few more steps, and more cracking. I didn’t waste any time in turning back. I have this thing about falling through ice – I don’t like it. I’m funny that way.
