This time some (almost) dog free Snowtographs taken during my first jaunt out with the camera since discharge from hospital. A covering of snow has the amazing ability to make the most unprepossessing of areas look magical and I'm extremely grateful for that as my jaunts are limited to the immediate area with just the camera (camera bag too heavy).
I'm a great fan of sophisticated gadgetry so bought a raincoat for my camera. However it is such a damned fiddle to put on that I resorted to the much less sophisticated plastic bag and elastic band for this lot. You will see from V4 that it was snowing quite heavily during this jaunt and the plastic bag arrangement served me pretty well.
They are in no particular order of preference, though I confess I do like the image of the girls next door's snowman and snow dog in V2. Yes I know that it would have been a much better image if I had got down for a much lower POV but I can't get down and up again at the moment. Please note that I sought and got the permission of the next door neighbours to take this shot.
Anyway, thanks for looking and I hope that you enjoy at least some of them.

V1 and v2 are my favourites in this lovely selection Lynne 
Helen
Excellent Lynne.
All very good ~ up to your usual high standard 
You do prove the point that presentation is as important as content.
Nos. 3 & 7 for me.
A lovely set, Lynne. V6 for me, I think.
Regards
Bill
the trees are all very good, the oval with żGareth? and his dog is fantastic but the neighbours snow man and dog is absolutely hilarious.
greetings from +35Cş and so glad you are on the mend.
Glad to hear you're on the ment, Lynne. A fine set, love the title, v9 wins the composition competition
Dave
All beautifully composed and exposed Lynne, they are all excellent, glad you are up and about.
Regards
Trev.
V2 - it's Tommy Cooper!
The graveyard shots are nearest to my photographic heart. We have a cemetery just beyond our house but I was too bone idele to venture there in the snow!
Moira
I do like them all but my pick of the bunch would be V3 it's a very good capture indeedand so well presented love it.
John
Snowman and snow dog make a great shot, Lynne: and with your first outing, you have captured a good selection of snow shots from near home. Although I have not gone through what you have, most of my recent shots are also from very close to home. Hope you keep well and gradually manage to travel further afield.
Kindest regards, Ronnie.
A superb set of snow scenes Lynne, v2 for the fun factor, v3, v4 and v9 are my favourites. It looks like you had a great time out in the snow getting these for us, and you may get another opportunity again over the weekend if the forecasters are to be believed!
Super Snowy shots Lynne, a lovely set. BUT!!! roll on Spring
John
I learnt a new word "Snowtograph" & a lot on presentation of a good work. Forwarded your link to my daughter to take some snow scenes err snotographs.
I love the snow ! All thepictures are so beautifully captured but I have to say my favorites are v2 and v9! Well done!

I echo that strongly.
Now I know there's no need for preference but had I to choose based on beauty alone, it'd be the tree ones and V4. Vs 1 and 4 topping the lot. But I have to say my FAVOURITE image here is V2 I have NEVER seen a snowdog. Nor have I seen a Turkish snowman. I assume he's Turkish 'cos of the fez The poor thing's got a bite taken out of him, though. Must be snowdog.

Thay may well be so, but where's the model release from the snowman, Lynne?
Good to see you are out and about, if not yet getting down and up again.
V1, after the fun of v2, because of the tree angle, I like the lean. and v12 for the receeding tree line.
Malc
Worry not Malc, I got the model releases from both snowman and snow dog!
A fine set of snowtographs, Lynne, and you certainly look to have got plenty of the white stuff!
Trev
Excellent set of frostographs, Lynne. We could see ice only in the refrigerator as we live in the tropical belt of our country. A n(ice) treat for us. - Raja.
