Winter is a very beautiful time of the year. The main thing is that the sun shines in the sky. If the sky is clear, then the world takes on bright colors. Snow sparkles and glitters in the sun. Pancake winter blue shadows in the snow contrast with the yellow light of our star.
Usually there is not much snow in cities. In the cities there are services that clean roads, clean the city of snow. But if you leave the city, walk from the road towards some field or forest, you immediately find yourself in a real winter fairy tale.
It is especially great if a human's foot has not yet stepped before you. In the sense that this foot did not step here after the snow fell. Then the snow is flat and without traces. The snow looks like a blanket covering the ground.
When you look at this beauty, you forget about the cold. Usually, if the sun is shining in the sky, then an anticyclone has come to us. This is an area of high atmospheric pressure. This most often means that a large and heavy cold air mass has come.
Cold demands attention to clothing. To take pictures in such weather, you need to be prepared for the frost.
Warm pants, a sweater under a jacket, a hat, mittens, warm shoes are a must. If during shooting you will be distracted by inconveniences, you will not be able to observe nature well.
Sometimes you even have to lie in the snow to get the desired angle. And if you are properly equipped, then such work turns into pleasure.
Today I am posting photographs from the snow fields near Kostroma. Thanks to the good sunny weather and frost, I can show these beautiful places.
