January Snow

I’ve been living in Bristol for more than 13 years now, and we’ve had negligible snowfall in most of that time – probably 2 snowy mornings – and I reckon the last decent snow I saw was probably in 1991.
But in the last 12 months, we’ve had 4 decent snowfalls – 2 in Jan/Feb, one at the end of December and another one today. Being the inveterate snapper that I am (which you wouldn’t guess from the amount I’ve posted to this blog, would you?), I’ve taken the opportunities to get out and take some photos. These are today’s.

December Snow

Yes, I know it was a few weeks ago, but I’ve only just got round to sorting out the photos…

A decent snowfall a few days before Christmas, so I did the usual and walked to The Downs with camera in hand. The snowfall was all overnight, and it turned into a lovely morning.
