Taking a break

                                     Nikon D90, Nikon 35mm f1.8 AFD


The snow had been pretty and relentless at the same time. For a number of days we got regular snow showers and just when we thought things had cleared we got a continuous 8 hour blizzard which brought Scotland to a standstill. The boys had a fantastic time and because we were limited in where we could go we went the same park each day for sledging. They made friends with a kid up the road and they spent most of the time out on their sledges. Apart from this short break they kept moving so they weren't feeling the cold. Being the chief toffee dispenser and general pack horse, I did.

What a lovely photo. Isn't it wonderful how children never seem to feel the cold? The picture reminds me of my own childhood, when my memories say that the snow used often to stay for weeks on end. But I can't say now whether it really did, or whether it just seemed like weeks at the time.
