Title says it all: Snowing Again

Looking out from my living room this very moment. Perhaps Scotland later this week will provide a warmer weather?

A striking poster-like dark silhouette of the city against wonderful dreamy sky colours!

Thank you, Werner!  I also liked the industrial horizon.

Thank you Akira. She is a kind and beautiful kid.

   That camera-lens combo is a killer!

I didn't know about the streetfootball.  So, you capture the moment of the kicker aiming at "panna knock out"?
No, he plays to his team member.

Street football is a simplified version of the normal football.  A team of 4 players (with a voluntary keeper) on small field with a small goal  https://sites.google.com/site/sportzonenz/home/street-football/street-football-rules
Here it was played on a square in the city center. I wanted a higher point view (to get a nice angle) so asked permission to enter the second floor of a shop-store to make this shot.

No slaughtered pigs. This red stuff appeared about a month ago and and seems enhanced by the rain (of which we have had more than our share). Fungus, mold, moldering leafage? I don't know. I'm replacing my porch this summer so I've done nothing about it but have remained merely curious. The color is quite rich I think.

Beautiful scene and the light!  The stacking seems to work very well!

Striking image!  I love the color.  Which 60mm did you use?
