Random winter fricasse - 10 pictures

Greetings, Steemians! After the Christmas holydays I am back, with a little photo dump.
I present some random winter fricasse from the recent visuals. (Captured mostly at the evening time of a day - which comes very early! daytime in our northern latitudes flies by very, very quickly.)

Folks on the streets show up well-dressed and look very, very, very warm. That is a pleasure to look at - and take pics. Some of them are armed with umbrellas (to protect themselves from the snow blizzards).

A lot of snow fell on the city streets. The street cleaners probably got blisters on their hands.... just kidding! It is the specialized machines that do non-stop snow-removing job, and special municipal nanobots melt it. (Just a week later - there was no trace of the snow, and green lawns were all around again!)

На улицы выпало много снега. Дворники наверное натерли мозоли на руках.... шучу! снег убирают специализированные машины, а специальные нанороботы плавят его. Спустя неделю от снега не осталось и следа, снова видны зеленые лужайки!

In every city square and in every shop window, as well as at the counters, there are festively decorated Christmas trees.

Улицы обильно украшены светодиодами - эффектный способ! В моем детстве это не было распространено так, как сейчас.

I want to round off my blog with this funny photo. Look! At a street Christmas market I stumbled upon Santa Claus (and managed to take a paparazzi-style photo from behind). If you've ever wondered where does he stock up on the gifts he hands out from his huge sack... then this photo has the clues: he gets his goods from the same place as we do... from a store! There is no special Santa-Claus-made-in-Laplandia-factory :)

Закруглить свой блог я хочу этой фотографией - смотрите! на уличной ярмарке я встретил даже Санта-Клауса (и успел сделать папарацци фото со спины). Если вы когда-нибудь спрашивали себя, где он затоваривается подарками которые он раздает из своего огромного мешка... то на этой фотографии есть ответ: он берет товары там же, где и мы.... в магазине! никакой особой санта-клаус-маде-ин-Лапландия-фабрика у него нет :)

My pleasure! I wish I had a longer light day, an more sunny weather - then I could venture into street, rather than into night photography!

Do you have snow fallen on your land?

As the days are "always" long on São Miguel Island - Azores, my adventures in night photography are rare (although I really enjoy it).... It doesn’t snow here, and today we have a minimum temperature of 17°C and a maximum of 18°C, with lots of humidity. I can assure you I’m waiting for the sun to take my first sea swim of the year. Cheers :)
