First snow

Just like the last time, the first snow of this winter arrived a bit early in Amsterdam, albeit subtly. I stepped out with my trusty camera to take some pictures and managed to drag along a good friend into this arctic expedition of our neighbourhood of Ijburg.

It was a foggy morning and it was cold. As we passed by a lonely and warded off pier, I took a moment to stop and admire the feeling of infinity the veil of fog created.

The shrubs that usually blended into the surroundings, stood out spectacularly against the white(ish) backdrop.

The still water became one with the sky for the border was a grey area (wink wink)

Trees stood solemnly and in solitude, against the sulky feels. We braved the sentinels and marched further.

After the supposed short walk ended more than two hours later, we stopped by a cafe to warm ourselves with some coffee.
