I have just read an unusual and rather superb post from Mark Roberts. Mark’s blog – Backpacking North is a favorite of mine. The photographs are superb in this post and include a photo of a snowbow, something I have not seen before.

The images of a brilliant white landscape is something we do not see very much in the UK, but the winter of 2010, when temperatures dropped to -19C at home allow me to photograph similar scenes. Here are a couple of my own “Lapland” photos from home.
I remember that winter spell. Hopefully get some more crisp cold snowy days this winter, my favourite walking conditions.
That post by Mark is truly unique, well worth a read!
Yes looking forward to a cold crisp one. I can get out in my snow-shoes again !
It seems so long ago now. We had snow on the ground for nearly two months up here in the North-East. Crikey.

Same in Lincolnshire from just two snow falls.
Thanks for that, Mark! I’ve been busy with other stuff and only just saw you’d written this post 🙂
The photos do look very Lapland-ish. They even have that “blue moment” feeling!
Thanks Mark, I enjoyed your post!
