More snow photos from the Lonnekerberg forest

Here is the last set of snow photos I took on our Sunday walk on the Lonnekerberg, as promised in my post yesterday. If you like skipping things, skip to the last photo!

As usual, we parked by the lake. The ice had partially melted before the snow fell, giving some nice, fluid shapes:

This little pole marked the beginning of the path:

You can tell from the previous photo it was about 0⁰C, and the snow was just starting to melt. Somehow, it survived better on the firs than on the other trees:

As the sun went lower the tree tops were lit up very nicely:

As you can tell from this photo with the deer tracks I posted yesterday, it was a very clear day:

It didn't stay clear though; just before sunset we saw a strange mist over the snow fields that seemed to rise from nowhere:

I tried to look up what is was, and my best guess is that this type of mist is called advection fog and happens when moist, warmer air passes over a cool surface like a snow-pack.

I decided to wait near the car for the sun to set, to see what that would look like with this snow mist going on, and I wasn't disappointed:

Well worth the cold fingers!
