It is one of those days again today, dark and lots of rain. After a very short cold period, temperatures have raised to 10 C (50 F). We even had the warmest January 25th ever with 14,6 C (58F). This is not a winter I like very much, it has to be frosty with snow and not as if we have the same dull weather all year long.
This is at the new entrance of the Central Staion in Amsterdam.
Superbe !
BeantwoordenVerwijderenTja, we moeten het er toch mee doen.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenHet levert wel mooie plaatjes op :)
Believe me. Rain is much better than snow.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenI like the angles you took these photos from very much. I agree with you that a little fresh snow makes everything look cleaner and brighter during the winter months.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenThere is a town not far from me along the Pacific coast that is fogged in or overcast most of the time throughout the year. They say the suicide rate there is higher than any place else in the area. Evidently weather like that can be depressing pushing some to the edge.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenGrey skies make me feel sad, specially when accompanied by lots of rain...
BeantwoordenVerwijderenAwww Marianne I wish I could send you some sun we have way too much! That's a very impressive entrance to the station.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenThe graceful curve of that entrance appeals to me.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenBeautiful entry to the station, for sure. We have also had a mild winter so far, but the word is that El Nino strikes in February, so we might be in for cloudy, rainy days and colder weather.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenI'm with you. I prefer the snow and drier conditions.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenDearest Marianne,
BeantwoordenVerwijderenAlways wet and dreary looking is not the best outlook!
We have had frost and now it is warming up again, yesterday 20 and today 16 and Monday 22... but dreary looking!
Winter is after all a season with dark days and the moisture either from rain or snow needs to come down for replenishing the soil for the next growing season. It should be within boundaries of course...
Hugs,
Mariette
The new barrel vaulted entrance is so like one at Newbury Park I came across during my exploration of the Underground.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenWe have had the same today - the tail end of storm Jonas
BeantwoordenVerwijderenIt's expected to warm up here, too, by week's end. Quite a contrast with the weather we've just had.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenA pretty entrance, a not so pretty day. Our winter has been warm here too, even for north Florida.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenI agree you about the weather of this january. It has been very strange also in South Finland.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenThis entrance looks very modern, nice-looking.
This is a very attractive entrance to the station, but the red scooter really caught my eye.
