If you live in the UK, you may possibly have noticed that it’s been chucking it down with snow this evening. Of course, that means the whole country will grind to a halt tomorrow (after all, it’s not as if we have a winter every year, is it?), but it looks quite pretty in the sodium glow of the street lights right now.
It’s 11.30pm, and I just nipped outside with my camera (in my dressing gown and flip flops – am I mad!?) to take a few shots. The photo above shows the view from my front door in west London right now, looking across the car park to the allotments beyond. And it’s still snowing…
Oh, and please don’t forget to feed the birds during this cold snap!
Snow DOES have a way of beautifying the world, does it not? And giving one a pause, to reflect quietly…. ahhh, but too bad it’s not Monday and a day off to be had :~)
Sadly, it looks a bit rubbish this morning, now that lots of people have driven and walked through it. I do think it looks quiet and romantic at night though!
The sodium glow,
Of street lights in snow,
Overlooking an allotment,
Gives me much contentment.
(Poetry fail)
That’s almost a Haiku – I like it! :)
Beautiful picture :) Really romantic with all this night and no one in the street :)
Thank you! It was lovely and quiet when I took the photo, absolutely no-one about – everyone else was snuggled up inside in the warm (and quite rightly too, it was freezing cold!)
