So this village (Winchcombe) is only a few miles away from where I live but I had fun taking the pics - we don't really get snow in the UK so to see this much was snow was great experience.

They are all straight out of my D90 with no post processing. Hope you like them... C&C welcome!

    Not seeing any photos — just numbers for them.

    Any feedback? It's quite okay to tell me they're not very interesting... well it's not really ok, but at least I would know :D

    I like them. I'm somewhat surprised to read that you don't get much snow in the UK. I thought it was an annual event for you all. In any event, you recorded the scenes very well.

    I always wanted to lie naked on a bearskin rug in front of a fireplace. Cracker Barrel didn't take kindly to it.

    Thanks Tom thumb.gif

    And as for the snow in Blighty - it's been the most we've had in decades! Check out this satellite pic:

    snow in the UK
    Thanks for those. I lived nearby (Blockley ) for 10 years until about 1 year ago. I always found the winter cold because of the dampness. thanks, guyH

    you got the exposure for the snow down pat, no blown spots... well done! i'd have thought you got more snow as a rule... what with the whole "Christmas Carol" thing with snow everywhere, Dickens must've gotten the idea somewhere! headscratch.gif i love shots of picturesque little English villages, would love to visit the Cotswolds someday with my cameras!

    Blockley is very nice - and you're right about the dampness. I've just been in Chamonix where the temperature was a lot lower but yet didn't feel anywhere near as cold!

    Thanks - I like 1 in particular too, just can't put my finger on why...

    Thanks thumb.gif Although I think the D90 takes a lot of the credit...

    As for the snow in Blighty - I think we did used to get a lot more snow than we have done of late... perhaps this global warming thing is just us returning to how we used to be ne_nau.gif
