So my first post in the pub , a good place to end after my #wednesdaywalk in the snow , i hope they serve hot choclate milk with some extra to get warm again .😁
Today the wife had to work the late shift from 15:00 till 23:15 so after i dropped her of at work i decided to go for a walk.
The wife is still not allowed to drive after her cataract surgeryso until she can drive safely again I'm the taxi.
It has been a wile since i've been here in Bloeidaal , yesterday i visited the other part of this nature reserve called the Schammer , the weather conditions were a lot better then today.
as you can see in the post from yesterday : @stresskiller/walking-in-the-winter-wonder
The weather forecast predicted a snowstorm today but i decided to go anyway , it's not that often that we are treated with snow in our country.
The snow and clouds didn't really help to capture the settings as i wanted to but we managed to capture some of the white .
1 ) The info sign of the nature reserve , you can find it here on the map : https://maps.app.goo.gl/A46n11HniyUf8USY9 the area is also used for drinking water, as a water extraction area.
2 )Through the trees you can see th farm that is where the walk will end :)
3 ) the parking lot with the info sign
4 ) the pathway behind the parking lot
5 ) we go in the other direction
6 ) Every thing is coated with a layer of snow
7 ) ice on the water on the left still to thin to carry my weight
8 ) best to stay on the bridge here , don't want to end up in the water next to it
9 ) the ground is not frozen at all still moddy swamp here
10 ) That is the bridge we just crossed, sorry we didn't end up in the water .
11 ) tree hanging over the path due to the weight of the snow
12 ) the other side of the tree looking back to where we came from
13 ) More frozen water on the right , and it started to snow again tiny snow flakes. no signs / trails of wild life yet .
14 ) onwards we go , the only tracks so far are humans and dogs.
15 ) Alnus / Alder male and female catkins
16 )unlike yesterday no blue sky today
17 ) blackberry bushes on the left look so inocent withe snow on top untill you walk in to them :)
18 ) another tree bended over due to the wight of the snow
19 ) reed flower coverd with snow also bending over
20 ) snow covered branches
21 )looks like the weather is going to get worse , time get back to the car again.
22 ) Another small frozen pond , no animal tracks so they won't drink here i know there are deers in the area from last year.
23 ) Looks like a nice place to live next to nature reserve .
24 ) this is a Bike path but no bike will use it today with all that snow on it
25 )Bike path is good enough to walk on back to the car
26 ) one more turn and then straight on home
27 ) that is where we came from
28 )Almost at the end of this walk i can see the traffic sign.
29 ) This is what it looks like when you come crawling out of the pub .
30 ) yes the end indeed , the same farm where we started so the parking lot is to my right here time to get out of the cold again.
That is all for today all images created with the Sony A7II camera and the Laowa 15 mm F4.5 1:2 Macro lens.
