What are you favourite books and stories that feature winter?

(me: East of the Sun, West of the Moon, especially the novel version Ice by Sarah Beth Durst).

A lovely and cold scene from Panna A Netvor, a Czech version of Beauty and the Beast.

Just found this wonderful photo set.

The rest is here.

Hello-hello, Happy New Year! And Happy Christmas, Eastern Orthodox style.

Apparently, there are epic snowfalls all across Europe and Asia! Links to BBC galleries:
World's winter wonderland
Snow spreads over UK
Asia's record snowfall
Snow across UK in reader pictures: one and two

And here's a quiz on snow! I got 5 out of 7 correct, haha!

I'll try to post actual images next, I promise. :P

[ETA] And here's more, pics from snowy London; Northern hemisphere gripped by cold weather; reader's pictures of winter wonderland across Europe

just a couple of things from my greader.

A couple of lovely wintry links from my Google Reader. Enjoy!

Walking in a winter wonderland from guardian.co.uk and lovely winter-themed posts from the thinking tank: happy holidays! & wintertime.

Hope your days are filled with holiday cheer! <3

what does winter look like where you live?

ann_septimus — Sun, 20 Dec 2009 06:44:10 GMT

Some various pictures, taken in and and around Spokane, Washington: 2008-2009.

Outside my old apartment building.

Our farm. A snowstorm. My sister's awesome hat.

The view from my balcony.

Again, from my balcony.

A snowier, clearer morning, from my balcony.

The best things about winter, though?

Baking while wearing silly aprons! It can't all be fog and ice and chunky sweaters, right?

some flickr favourites.

Hello lovelies, first time poster here. Thought I'd share some of my flickr faves with you all. Clicking on pictures will take you to photographers' respective galleries.

(Such a nice idea!)

What's on your Christmas wishlist this year?

mmmeadowes — Thu, 10 Dec 2009 00:01:07 GMT

Hello lovelies ♥
Winter is, by far, my most favourite season.
Beautiful falling snow, cold crisp weather, gloves and scarves and mittens and hats, warm winter coats, hot cups of tea, mince pies, fairy lights, train journeys past snow covered fields, Wellington boots, hot water bottles, falling asleep in front of an open fire, hot roasted chestnuts, being with your families.
Here are a few lovely photos I've found online, if you click them they'll take you to their respective posts on this lovely tumblr page called Winter's Passing that I maintain. From there every photo is credited back to its owner ♥

♥

Edit: I'm not sure why the pictures are coming out so tiny, but if you click them they go to their regular sizes ♥

As the wild geese go south
and the world falls asleep
I wake up slowly from my heated slumber.

I let the cold touch my toes and my knees
I shiver in the morning light
I curl up. I stretch out.
My lungs fill with icy air.

As the animals hide beneath the earth
I thread upon it.
I've never been more awake then when
the snow falls
and silence cover the world.

(winter 2008)

It has been snowing steadily since I took this five hours ago. Hopefully the lighting is good tomorrow and we can see how it snowed over the course of 24 hours? I'm not entirely sure that this snow will stay, but there is a good chance - it hasn't been above freezing for several days. :)

Good morning lovelies!

I've cleaned the members list up, just deleted the members with deleted accounts because all the struck-through names were making the profile page look unkempt. If you've only recently deleted your account and reactivate it I apologise and you're more than welcome to rejoin :)

I hope everyone is well and happy and have dusted off your woollens, it's nippy here already!

Blow, blow, thou winter wind.
Thou art not so unkind
As man’s ingratitude;
Thy tooth is not so keen,
Because thou art not seen,
Although thy breath be rude.
Heigh-ho! sing, heigh-ho! unto the green holly:
Most friendship is feigning, most loving mere folly:
Then, heigh-ho, the holly!
This life is most jolly.
Freeze, freeze, thou bitter sky,
That dost not bite so nigh
As benefits forgot:
Though thou the waters warp,
Thy sting is not so sharp
As friend remember’d not.
Heigh-ho! sing along.
