    Strange... I posted a buch of pictures yesterday, but I must have botched it somehow. Here we go again:


    Ice yacht in Roskilde, Denmark.


    Closer look at an Ice yacht minus its skates.


    Vor frue Kirke in Kalundborg, Denmark. The only European church with five towers.


    And on top of the highest tower you find....


    A narrow and interestingly shaped foot bridge in Kalundborg.


    Kalundborg, Denmark. Something for the Roses to climb (During summer, that is).


    A walk in the woods back home.


    Fresh timber.


    Another disused shed in the woods.


    A frozen reed.

    We had a blizzard here yesterday and another one coming in tonight. I'll post some pictures of it later.

    You didn't post that picture before (they are in the photo album thread), that is just incredible! I absolutely love pictures of grass.
    the luminous grass of the prairie hides
    feet lovely and still as sleeping doves,
    porcelain bones strong enough to carry a life,
    but weighty and unmovable
    As black Dakota hills.

    Very... Oh, by the way, I just cleared the roof of the garden shed from snow... without using a ladder to get up there. I climbed up the wall, which was easy because of all the snow. When I was done, all I had to do was to jump. The snow broke the fall very nicely.

    Scented, those pictures were very nicely done. I particularly liked the bottles.

    Yes, I snapped that one recently, so it is not in the albums.

    Wonderful photos as usual and would you believe we had a decent amount of snow here in Texas too!
    I posted a few photos of our snow storm on February 11 - 12th a few pages back.

    I have a cousin who lives in Texas. Grew up in California, moved to Texas as an adult and he was so excited because this was the first time he had ever experienced snowfall that wasn't in the mountains. He was just so dang cute in his enthusiasm about it. I promised him the novelty wears off fast.

    In Texas? That must have caused a bit of commotion, right? I'll check the pictures right away...

    Snowqueen, Bushy and Shinu are adorable! They could not possible be be anything but little angels ever-Brooke, too, Janine! They are too cute for words!

    Claes, your pictures are wonderful. Those little sheds in the snowy woods are quite beautiful; I think I might be inspired to try capturing that with my watercolors. Not that it will turn out very well, but still, I'd love to try.

    ...and if you do, I would love to see the result.

    Claes, those pictures are amazing! (especially the bridge and fence ones)

    Talking about the Peak District in another thread recently reminded me to transfer my photos to my computer, so I just thought I'd share a few in the process (and remind myself what summer was like).




    Far from the best photos of the Peak, but a quiet road that we bike through on the way to Castleton.


    Ladybower reservoir, regular biking haunt.


    The peak behind is Win Hill, you can climb up to the top and sit with the sheep.


    A bridge in a place called Lower Bradfield, not far into the Peaks at this point. Behind you can just make out the church in Upper Bradfield.


    This is not the Peaks actually, just Dam Flask, about 5 mile from my house, 2 mile from Lower Bradfield, but in a City of half a million, most people don't even know that it is there...


    The George pub in Castleton, the Castle pub just behind it, nice but can't get served in the summer for toffee.


    The Castle pub and our bikes in the foreground and the ruins Peveril Castle behind. Not me in the photo.


    Inside the Castle pub.

    Haddon Hall, medieval manor house near Bakewell:






    The gardens are pretty good, nice to sit in, there's never many people around.








    Outside Bakewell.


    A bridge near Bakewell.


    I can't remember the name of this village, something "...well" just somewhere we passed through once when we got lost, they all look the same after a while, but many have nice little coffee shops to re-fuel and fill our faces with buns.

    Cheers, yes will do, it's good to get away from it all and get out there. Twice a week in the summer months, 50/60 mile rides, the hills are a killer for me though.
