First Snow


We have just had our first snow of the season. Is it early? I think so. We have had frost since October already and some very cold nights.
It is so beautiful when the land we know as one everchanging seasonal thing is suddenly covered by a blanket of snow. It reflects light and the contours are softened. The land looks like reclining bodies all over and the white sheep go in search for grass in all the white.
