SNOW COVERED MOORLANDS AT MUIRSHIEL Feb 2009

This was the view that greated me as I made my way to work back in February - Snow, snow, and more snow!
It was magical once I got to work, as no-one else had been out and about since the snowfall apart from the birds and animals. - no footprints anywhere.
In the afternoon, I headed up part of the road towards the old mines up on the moors. Snow covered everything and it all looked clean and crisp and brilliantly white in the strong [but cool] sunshine.
At the riverside it was hard to believe the size of the icicles. These ones are about 6foot [2metres] in length!
This was the good side of snow - the bad side was it was COLD!!!!!!!!!!!
