This year it seems that the winter doesn’t want to end. Luckily I had a break for a month in India in January… Every Sunday we go out for a walk. Last weekend it was snowing and grey, two weeks before the Sun was radiant and reflecting in the snow. Both series of photos are from an area about 15 km away, which I like very much – when the weather is fine you have a great panoramic view of the Alps, and the soul can expand and take a deep breath. And even when the air was gray the snow created many subtle color shades. Now the snow is slowly receding in the valleys, but in the mountains it will continue for some more time. Enjoy
