So no clear footprints.
(No any cloning work, if you were thinking that !)
I think that successfully cloning out footprints in snow would be quite difficult to do
I am glad that it is not -12 here although it is close to that in parts of Scotland.

Last 2-3 years have been dark, wet, disgusting muddy and damp here. I hate that gloomy time. Now, in snow, it is like paradise. No ploblem with the minuses, if you have got good clothes and warm home. It is real fun.
BTW, I think there was a record of snow yesterday in Tallinn....more than half meter ( 62 cm )! Some problems with traffic. Plus parking cars cant get away from theis "places".
I have no such sight here.
Edit: 62 cm
what fabulous pictures, glad I am not judging, just have to say how much I loved Judith Ann's and Aikis, so different and stunning images, great work girls
Thank you Lilly...I had many winter/snowy photos I could have entered, but it is so rare to capture a sundog...when I researched sundogs and saw the photo examples, I then realized that I had captured it very well indeed.
While I was taking it...I was trying to GUESS what setting I needed and what was the best angle to shoot....bottom line was I did not know...so I winged it and decided I would seek advice after the shot. As I said, I found out that I did 'just fine' after all.
I am now waiting for a great show of the Northern Lights....Need to do something while I am up north here....it is -35 cel right now, so keeping warm preoccupies us all! Although I am grateful it has warmed up to that...as just before Christmas it was -55...Brrrrr!!!!
You've got until this Wednesday 6pm to enter if you like
