Good eye. I didn't even noticed that face in the snow. Your picture is so sweet. I get hummingbirds in my garden, but they are impossible to photograph. You blink your eye and they are gone. Actually, they are unbelievable. They are so small, yet they travel so far. They come here to BC for the summer, only to fly back to Mexico, so many kilometers away. The climate here is so extreme. It can be so hot in the summer, normally 33-36 C, sometimes close to 40. In the winter, typically -10, but we get a few cold snaps of -15 to -25 C. I have yet to invent a new word for miserably, unbearably, f***ing cold. Sometimes when the air temperature dips down to -20 the lake temperature is much warmer and you get to see a steam coming out of the lake as if it was a giant hot-tub.

Chilling in Cheshire.
Valencia tonight. Not the best resolution, but hey ho.
Nice picture, have walked through the park next to that building a number of times.

BC is big (as above in comparison to the UK) and has a variety of different climates. Salt Spring Island (one of many Georgia Straight islands) has a mild coastal temperatures. The Southern interior where I live has dry, desert climate. There might be only a day or two in summer months when it rains; you can find a miniature cactus growing wild. The lake pictured in previous photo is very long (about 60 kms) and never freezes. That's why you can see a steam coming up on a particularly cold day. The water temperature is only about 1 C so it acts as a hot pool compared to the brutally cold air temperature. But we also have true hot springs (about 36 - 40 C) and I enjoy them quite a bit. It's always a long drive to get there as everything is so far with nothing in between.
Below is the photo taken on the same day as the previous one. It is only a 2 min drive from the downtown, but I would not take the sign seriously at all, as most municipalities like to give its citizens their directions on how to live. In 20 years I have seen a bear only once right in my backyard and it was so timid and shy it ran away as soon as I opened my patio door.

^^^^ beautiful snow pic
With over 1500 pics taken in the last week, making the pic book is going to be a tough one. It just ended up epic.
And one more

I was down in Brighton yesterday for an event. The first pic here is on my way back this morning. It was freezing, probably -4c as the train rolled through Battersea. It's unretouched. The smoky effect is grime on the train window, which worked out nicely.
The second is from the seafront at Brighton yesterday, and is just a quizzical gull.

Due to circumstances I haven't been out for a while, but all is looking good again. Here is a decent shot way above Wast Water, taken on 29-01-17. Cheers.

So beautiful!
Quite impressive, it also makes me feel humble and tiny, as realizing just to be part of something so much bigger. It's all just a mystery. Magical.
Thanks for sharing.

Another visit to Buttermere with a mate who'd never been before. This time I got a big panoramic shot of a quite staggering view. Cheers.

I am glad I live in Moz Angeles just like Morrissey. Those places look really depressing and who would want to live in a hobbit house?
