Beautiful shot Eldar. My 5yrs would love to play in snow ALL DAY.
Last year, we rented a cabin in BIG BEAR, california. She couldn't have enough of it.
This year, there is not much going in orange counnty, California. The temp here is in mid 70 - 80 F and no rain, so no snow in local mountains.![]()

135 L
The island has the Norwegian record for sustained winds, at 46 meters per second (100 mph); with gusts considerably higher. Waves are known to wash over the entire island.
So difficult are landing conditions that the island has no piers. There are three landing sites on different sides of the island, and on one, a crane pulls boats out of the water. A boathouse built in 1905 lasted only one year before it was claimed by the sea and rebuilt in concrete well above sea level the year after. Source Wikipedia

Jack Douglas said:Thanks bholliman. It's true of course that we need to treat our planet much better and our resources and wildlife. I'm just not sure that we can influence the climate much with the proposed measures, sadly. Of course as usual there are fat cats getting fatter and living the life while crying doom and gloom and as a result you don't know who to believe.
I'm sure the folk that post on CR by and large are doing their best to look after this wonderful world we have in whatever ways are possible. Myself, I will be presenting my wildlife photos for the last year to our county in hopes of getting illegal vehicles off of the reserve where I tend to shoot.
Sorry, a wee bit off topic but .....
