Monday 14th Jan gave us the first decent snow fall of winter 2012/13...shot on the tops in the Yorkshire Dales at sunset.

Nice shot. That looks suspiciously like a cloud inversion off to the left.

I love, love love winter photography. Something about the soft palette of colors just appeals to me like crazy.  About the only thing I like more than the soft winter pastels is a bright blue/orange winter contrast dusted with white snow and ice in the American southwest.

Very well done!  ALMOST makes me wish I had a use for the snowshoes and toboggan that are still stored in the basement.

You wouldn't want to spoil a scene like that with snowshoes or a toboggan? :) Still waiting for the first snowfall in the West of Scotland at low level. A very nice scene. A good capture before the hand of man interfered and spoilt it. :)

I like the variety of textures: the near snow, the distant stoney snow, the low clouds, and the way the shape of the stone wall echoes in the near snow and the high clouds.
Nicely done.
