Last night the weather forecast for my part of the world warned of snow showers settling on high ground. Now when they say high ground that usually means no closer than the Brecon Beacons which are over 2,000 feet+ high So I just ignored it. What they didn't say , or more likely what I missed was it would be moving up from the south. When I got up this morning the mountain behind me looked like this

But nothing on the hill or gardens.

I took Losyn to the Sirhowy walk thins morning, which is south of me and the ammount of snow increased.

Thankfully there was none on the walk itself. It was bitterly cold though and Jack Frost had been having fun with the puddles.

I curled up in front of the computer of the computer when I got home and haven't left the warmth of my living room since. There has been no sign of a thaw on the mountain so I imagine it is freezing out there still.

I hope these pictures help you cool down when you get back from your holiday vilakins. I would gladly take some of your heat and humidity, I am so fed up with winter.

I am getting the hang of my new camera but it is so light and the pressure you need to take a photograph so heavy I keep moving my hand when taking them. Any how here are a few I took up Pen-y-fan this morning.

The farmer has got some new cows, I think they they are Highland cattle but Losyn goes demented if I go too close, he thinks they are evil, so I can't be sure. Of course none of them would look at me either.

This one I pulled into the side of the road on the way home to take, It's a little shaky as I had to be quick taking it between the passing cars.

This stream is normally not deep enough to up up over my walking shoes. After the rain we have had, I would want wellies to cross it if it wasn't for the bridge.

And finally for those of you who have told me they have only ever seen Losyn's Backside

And here he is doing his noble dog looking for danger and guarding his people routine. Again a little blurred but he kept trying to eat the camera, I think he thought it was a andwhich.
