Stunning frozen waterfall in Szentendre, Hungary, with intricate ice formations covering rocks in a winter landscape.
A candid street photo of the stylish groom who carries his beautiful bride in his strong hands to the iron tree with wedding locks foliage. They both smile and they both are happy. November weather is cold, wet, snowy and icy, but they are unaware of it. The bride's shoulde became bare but she gives the cold shoulder to this fact. May the happiness be with them.

On 7 January 2026, the Netherlands lies beneath a thick blanket of snow. Code Orange is in effect, and its impact is felt everywhere: flights are cancelled, trains and buses barely run, and the rhythm of daily life slows abruptly. Roads turn into quiet, pale surfaces, and the country is forced to shift down a gear. In the center of Amsterdam, this is highly unusual. Normally, the city stays just warm enough for snow to disappear quickly—turning wet, grey, and gone within hours. Buildings, water, and urban heat rarely allow winter to linger. But not today. Along the Herengracht, near the Brouwersgracht, snow falls without pause. Soft flakes settle on the quay, on the railings along the water, and on two abandoned bicycles leaning against the fence. Across the canal, a houseboat lies quietly in the water, while behind it a continuous row of historic canal houses forms a calm, almost rhythmic backdrop—dark brick, light window frames, rooftops lightly dusted with snow. The street feels strikingly empty. No traffic, hardly any movement. Sound is muffled, lines become simpler, and the pace slows naturally. Behind a few windows, warm light glows, small and restrained—silent signs of life in an otherwise hushed city. The open space near the Blauwburgwal enhances the sense of calm and breathing room, as if Amsterdam pauses here for a moment. There is disruption, without doubt—but also a sense of wonder. On this winter day, the city feels smaller, quieter, and almost timeless. And even here, in the heart of Amsterdam, the snow remains: rare, fragile, and therefore all the more special.
A quiet winter moment on the Herengracht in central Amsterdam, near the Brouwersgracht, during heavy snowfall on 7 January 2026. Snow-covered bicycles line the canal as historic houses and a silent houseboat fade into the soft white calm.
Op 7 januari 2026 ligt Nederland onder een dik pak sneeuw. Code Oranje is van kracht en dat is overal merkbaar: vluchten zijn geannuleerd, treinen en bussen rijden nauwelijks en het dagelijkse ritme vertraagt abrupt. Wegen veranderen in stille, bleke vlakken en het land schakelt noodgedwongen een versnelling terug. In het centrum van Amsterdam is dit uitzonderlijk. Normaal gesproken blijft het hier net warm genoeg om sneeuw snel te laten verdwijnen — nat, grijs en weg. Bebouwing, water en stedelijke warmte laten winter zelden blijven. Maar vandaag niet. Langs de Herengracht, ter hoogte van de Brouwersgracht, valt de sneeuw onafgebroken. Zachte vlokken blijven liggen op de kade, op de leuningen langs het water en op twee verlaten fietsen die tegen het hek zijn gezet. Aan de overzijde ligt een woonboot stil in de gracht, terwijl daarachter een aaneengesloten rij historische grachtenpanden een rustig, bijna ritmisch decor vormt — donkere baksteen, lichte kozijnen, daken dun bestoven met sneeuw. De straat is opvallend leeg. Geen verkeer, nauwelijks beweging. Geluid wordt gedempt, lijnen worden eenvoudiger en het tempo zakt vanzelf. Achter enkele ramen brandt warm licht, klein en ingetogen, als stille tekens van leven in een verder verstilde stad. De open ruimte bij de Blauwburgwal versterkt het gevoel van rust en adem, alsof Amsterdam hier even pauze neemt. Er is overlast, zonder twijfel — maar ook verwondering. Op deze winterdag voelt de stad kleiner, stiller en bijna tijdloos. En zelfs hier, in het hart van Amsterdam, blijft de sneeuw liggen: zeldzaam, kwetsbaar en juist daarom zo bijzonder.
A Canada Jay calls softly from a snow-dusted spruce as winter settles over the boreal forest. Fluffed against the cold, the bird pauses amid lichen-covered branches while snowflakes drift through the still air, a reminder that even in the quietest season, the forest is full of life.
Found this little gray-capped rosy-finch perched up in a tree one day last winter. While I usually see them as a flock or a "bouquet" of finches, this one was all alone. Against the monochromatic winter sky, I thought it looked so pretty. They feed on seeds, insects, and vegetation by ground foraging. This is one of 3 different rosy-finches found in North America, including the brown-capped rosy-finch and the black roy-finch. Such a joy to find them when out in nature.
Happy Monday to all!

It’s been too long since I went out with a camera. A rather better day, yesterday, encouraged a visit to the RHS site at Bridgewater.
A Red Twig Dogwood (cornus sericea) was of particular note with its striking red stems. This deciduous shrub is known for its bright and vibrant stem colours, which intensify after the leaves fall in autumn, making it a fantastic addition to landscapes for winter interest.
Winter dogwood shrubs can grow up to 6-9 feet tall and wide, forming a dense, bushy structure. They’re often used for hedging or as a focal point in winter gardens as here. They prefer moist, well-drained soil and can tolerate a variety of conditions, from full sun to partial shade. However, pruning it in early spring can help rejuvenate the plant and encourage the brightest stem colours.
Two Sundays ago, I decided to go out to photograph one of my favorite schoolhouses. It was a mistake, partly, because my truck got stranded temporarily due to windy coming from south, causing snowdrift over the county roads. I used the normal four-wheel drive, but I have to switch to the 'deep snow' mode, which helped me to get out. After I finally arrived to my destination, and immediately photograph the schoolhouse, with some different perspectives (you can see the other pic I posted a while ago). After I finished photographing the schoolhouse, I went back to the same route I came from, but nope the road, especially west and east routes, looked worse ... I mean, the snowdrift looked taller, so had to use my strategy on how to get myself out and decided to drive south toward the highway and made it home.
It was a very interesting day for me, LOL!

This photo is from a series of photos of “spiky hoarfrost” I took during a walk nearby. This event was the first ever "spiky" version I’ve seen here. All other times the hoarfrost was shorter and more rounded and the temperatures were about 10-20 degrees F colder. Both ways are exquisitely beautiful. I’m so grateful to have a macro lens that sees details I could never see! Fog had been present about six hours through the night and this frost was seen only on the north side of surfaces. It was just below freezing, so as the fog lifted and the temperature began to rise, these spikes softened to a version of slush.
En lo más crudo del invierno
In the bleak midwinter, frosty wind made moan,
Earth stood hard as iron, water like a stone;
Snow had fallen, snow on snow, snow on snow,
In the bleak midwinter, long ago.

A Great Tit pauses on a snow‑covered branch, a brief moment of resilience and calm. In its bright eye, there’s a hint of hope for the sun amid the winter cold.
