Fantastic images that illustrate what a real winter is!

I'll bet the lettercarrier doesn't make home deliveries in Dalvik.

Brrrrrrrr...

The starkness in the first photo is intense, and I love it.

Nice, but from a distance :D

And appropriate, as I am currently reading one of those thrillers by a Nordic writer!

Francois, Eric, Bob, and Paulo - thank you.

Eric - Some years ago I met a farmer in the remote northeast. He said when he was young he used to serve as a postman for the farthest farms on the Langanes peninsula which is like the back of beyond (I think the deliveries were once a week or once in two weeks). What a job, when you consider the lack of facilities in those days.

I really like the simplicity of the first one.
