The photographs were taken at Tremanskärr on November 21st.
This morning we had 1/2 cm of snow on the ground. Later it started raining instead of snowing. I was lazy, and had some flu symptoms, so I didn't commute by bicycle today. Instead, it got stuck in a traffic jam on the way home.

That thin layer of snow looks very fine, and that snaked tree in #3 is simply gorgeous - that thin layer of frost or snow evokes the same effect as you can find in old drawings on grey paper. The German expression for that is "weiß gehöht", the best translation I could find is "heightened with white". Anyhow, the impression is perfect!
It was good to have a little bit of white accents to the landscape. This has been rare this winter so far, as the temperature has been usually well above 0 °C. Today we may even get a new record for highest daily temperature for December, since such things have been measured.
Good to know that all that so-called climate change is nothing but the chatter of neurotic scientists (Trump would say)...
... and if it were a real thing, it only needs Trump to say "Stop!" for it to stop...
Oh, it certainly would :))
In a way (if it weren't so scary) it is enlightening to follow the behaviour of this extreme character with the message "Make America hate again". However, the same kind of hate speech and xenophobia is raising its head here in Finland as well. It seems that anything worth cherishing can be a target.
