Winter hasn't finished yet...


Most of us in Central and Northern Europe - except for the passionate skiers and vendors of road salt - are watching for the first harbingers of spring outside in nature in these days.

But...


...what we've got during night was this again!


It was even snowing in the morning hours,
so I took some photos from my balkony before I set to work.


But to add some colour to the "standard morning grey"...


...I took our vase with the daffodils and balanced it on the handrail of our balcony.

A colourful day to everybody!

My everyday drive through winter wonderland


Since one week we have got plenty of snow in our region.

So every morning and every evening I have to drive through the darkness on snow-covered roads on my way to work and back home.


In the meanwhile the guys from the snow-plowing service have cleaned most of the motorways and ordinary highways, so that the daily trip is a bit less exciting compared to the days with continuous snowfall.

This afternoon I finished my work a bit earlier than usual, so I had the chance to take a break in a wintery snowy forest area - just to relax and to to put some daylight between myself and the work.


Fortunately I had my camera with me, so I was able to take some snow shots.



 

By the way: yesterday my faithful VW Golf - I call tenderly my Red Porsche Killer - celebrated a rare occurrance...


...cast a glance on my mileometer / Kilometerzähler!
