Winter scenes in Roberts Park

Wintry scenes in Saltaire's Roberts Park. It's amazing how a bit of snow transforms the landscape. 



There weren't many people about, though it wasn't particularly early. I saw a family sledging and a few dog walkers, that's all. From the well trampled state of the snow, it looked as though more people had been out the day before. Someone had built a snowman. It hadn't occurred to me before that that's a good thing to do for the environment, as well as being fun. It slows the snow melt and mitigates against flooding.

  1. Patiently here in Hameln I await snow. So far we have not had a single flake.

  3. We had a snowfall overnight, just an inch. It mainly stuck on roofs and cars. I was surprised, because I do like to watch it coming down...so hypnotizing I guess. Loved the Llamas with snow...they looked real!

  4. Things always look so bright and clean after a snowfall!

  5. It's so beautiful! the old rounded building against the snow makes the photo look old fashioned.
