these pics are really good

I love them....they just show how powerful the earth is.  Amazing.

Fab pics,I have seen a few of these before.

Blimey - how come I've only just seen this thread - it is amazing.

It makes me feel very small-town ... all that, going on in the world, and I knew nothing about it

Jeepers it took me AGES to find this thread!

Anyway, few new pics to add to it.

Some pics of the effects of the Polar Vortex in the US

Beautiful pics, Ells.

Those Polar Vortex ones are beautiful.....but quite scary!  

Brilliant pictures.  I was just looking at the Niagara Falls ones earlier on MSN, amazing.

I'm hoping that I might be able to post some of the Aurora Borealis later.  We're off up to Bolam Lake later to hopefully get a better view of them with no light pollution.

Lovely Cinds, hope you get some good ones!

Beautiful pics ta Ells. I love Winter frozen photos.

Oh and I didn't add these to the pictures thread because that seems to be for funny pics and these are just pretty pics

Niagara has frozen, that's always really pretty. I have a thing for waterfalls. Been to Niagara and Victoria twice, so have Angel and the one in Brazil in my bucket list. 

That is the road to Jerusalem from Tel Aviv and Jerusalem itself just before Christmas. I'm off there this weekend and luckily the snow has gone and the temperature is back up 11°c, so more or less the same as London now.

That first picture is gorgeous Suzy, shame the road is there otherwise it would have been a love big white unspoilt blanket
