I was reading a post by @xFiacre, called Inebriated, but not through drink... go have a look... and was a bit envious of the description of her surroundings...
I love photography.... and enjoy going back and fore England from Spain... as I get to experience the changes of the seasons .. and love taking photos of them.. and I especially like to photograph winter scenes ... snow and Ice.... etc...
I was reminded of a photo I took a couple of years ago... of a dewy spiders web... one cold and frosty morning... if it had not been such a cold and frosty morning .. I would have missed this beautiful web.. caught with all the morning dew on it... my only sadness is that I only had my telephone with me... so the quality is not that good.... but I still like it... and am looking forward to going to the uk in the new year and hopefully get some nice shots...
I know the snow and ice can be dangerous, cold and inconvenient... but they do make the landscape even more beautiful bathed in white....
