Mountains, snow, and wiper blades...

Winter was back this weekend in Wales. Snow adds something to mountainous scenery, height, depth, an alpine look. You feel that at any corner you might come across a group of yodellers or a chap in leather shorts blowing on an Alpine Horn.

Take a look at the pictures and you’ll understand what I mean. Driving home on Sunday my daughter Holly took these fantastic photographs from the car as Gaynor drove them home after a week long holiday. It must be catching this taking pictures from the car thing - it's a bit hit and miss, with the motion blurring and bumps, but when it works the edge of a wiper blade adds a little extra interest.

Anyway, Holly's photographs are great. Austria? Switzerland? Italy? No North Wales.

Is that an Alpine Horn I can hear?
