'Snow Blanket' by MikeMcGowen

Snow Blanket, a photo by MikeMcGowan on Flickr.

The weather this winter has been strangely mild. I mean it's not been warm but I've realised I've hardly worn my winter coat or my gloves recently. I wonder if we'll get away with weather like this until spring. I doubt we'd be that lucky. Although saying that a little bit of snow is always a bit exciting. Just enough for my daughter to build a snowman and my son to be baffled by the whole experience!

This photograph should be called "Reasons for keeping your Christmas lights up all year". This is, in my option, really cool. It would obviously be very eye catching in real life but also makes for a fantastic photo!
