A Little Dusting of Snow




Category: Artic Living | Posted: Mon Jan 07, 2008 2:48 pm

Well a difference a day makes here in the Artic, as i'm sure it does elsewhere too. I took some pictures yesterday of what is called our "Blue Time" its when the darktime is over an now comes the hues of blue in our light. We got just a dusting of snow but that is enough to lighten it up here just a tad. So here is the difference in the same time pictures are taken and one day difference.

You can see the sky is a greyer blue now because it is just snowing a little.


The break front where we dock the boats, an you can see also the tide levels in this pic from summer to winter, where one of the boats usually sits, thats seaweed by the way.....


The sauna against the sky,,big difference from yesterday


Front of the barn which also used for toursts that stay here.


The cabins down on the field next to the sea,, you can see the clouds over the mountain,, thats how huge it is.


So lets see if we get more snow an it will be even bright an more bluer than this grey blue that we have today. What a difference a little snow makes.

Yes, there is as big difference with a bit of snow. Everything looks cold but cozy at the same time, I especially like the last picture.

Thanks so much for repeating the pictures.

Such a beautiful location Biita and that's in the dark winter! I can only imagine what it looks like in spring. Could we trouble you for some photos in the spring too? Thanks!

The snowfall you've had has certainly made everything much clearer to see. I love to see snow in my garden here during winter as it makes all my plants look much more attractive.

Keep those photographs coming as I really enjoy seeing them Biita.
