snOw hOt!

With all this lovely hot sun I need some ice for my cocktail....but on this occassion I'm going to use snow. Yes you read that correctly, I'm about to reminisce about my skiing holiday this year in Chamonix....enjoy x

The photo below is of the end of a building in the town and believe it or not the image you see is completely painted on, absolutely nothing is really there, not even the balconies or shutters!! It was so realistic we had to stand right up against the building to be able to tell...



I found these great pictures of old posters used many years ago to advertise Chamonix....

Very Vintage, love them!

Snow Romantic

We always wish for a white Christmas and then when we get it we're all in chaos! I lurve the snow and can't get enough, I'm straight out there with my camara seeing what I can find. This year the snow was amazing and I had great fun when I went to the Devils Punch Bowl at Hindhead, Surrey.  Luckily I have a vehicle that will drive almost anywhere, so armed with my entire ski outfit, my new Canon camara and most importantly some chocolate, (well you never know!).

Below you'll see a selection of my pictures; a snow covered holly leaf, magnificent icicles hanging from a hut and I've also sneaked in a picture from my recent skiing trip to Les Arcs, where there was even more snow to satisfy the photographer within!
