What a beautiful photo.
Thank you Sarah… He just looked so tiny amongst these huge trees. And determined to get back to take his ski boots off! :D
Another trip to Narnia? So dramatic with the big trees and the small boy.
Unfortunately not… Only Austria this time… Small People had a long lesson, and this was the Five Year old marching back as quickly as he could to get his ski boots off. He had definitely had enough! It was a successful day though, and this view of the back of him just made me laugh! :)
Oh wow, that’s beautiful. It’s like a Christmas card!
Thank you… there was lots of snow there yesterday! :)
that is such an adorable pic! Little man in the snow!
Thanks Sonya, he was so funny… He had been complaining about how tired he was, but suddenly got a burst of energy when he realised how close he was to take those “blinking boots” off! :D
stunning photo xx
Thanks Wendy! :) x
He looks like he is having fun. Gorgeous picture.
Thank you! He definitely had a fun day! (and so did I, in the warm with some gluhwein and a book!)… :D
That is a beautiful photo, almost looks like the front of a greeting card!
Thanks Kelly! :)
Wow! You still have so much snow? Very atmospheric. xx
This was taken in Austria yesterday. Although it’s snowing here as we speak :/
ah so lovely to read about ski lessons. My kids really enjoyed the times we went skiing. Love the trees x
Thanks Sarah, the younger they start the better! Saves all the agony of starting as a grown up, and failing, like me! :) x
What a dramatic snowy forest x
Thank you Claire! :)
It’s a magical shot.
Thanks Erica! He didn’t sound very magical, moaning away! :D
What a beautiful photo, all our snow is gone (thank goodness!)
Thanks Maria! I think we have a while to go before Spring arrives here! :D
breathtaking scenery and it looks like there is someone in too much of a hurry to take it in!
I think he had definitely had enough of the scenery! Although he did say he wanted to go again this morning, so it can’t of been that bad! :D
Wow love the way the forest makes us look so very small on this planet, awesome capture x
Thanks Dawn… We are but ants in the scheme of things! :D
Ohh, there’s a splash of colour through the trees there…
Yes, I think it might be a coach. Not so Narnia like! :D
Just gorgeous. I love the little bits of colour that are showing.
Thanks Cathy! Glad you like it! :)
Whilst I’m trying to put the snow behind me, this does look magical.
Thanks Sarah… I thought we had for a while, but it appears not! :/
Gorgeous! Little boy not so lost. A good time skiing? Conditions look perfect :)
Thank you. They had a great time! :)

Wow, that is quite a photo. Beautiful :)
Thank you Victoria! (:
Not so crazy about the snow (we’re getting more as I type) but love the photo. The little red boots are such a bright little spot of color against all the white and dark trees!
Thanks Caroline… Austria currently has a lot more than Munich, although it has been trying hard to snow all day! :)
beautiful picture!
Thanks Jaime! :)
Excellent photo
Thanks so much Bass (:
Stunningly beautiful shot as ever. What a scene to work with, eh? Midlife Singlemum hit the nail on the head when she likened it to Narnia. Happy Sunday.
Thanks so much BM… And a very Happy Sunday to you too! :)
What a gorgeous photo! Reminds me of a Christmas I spent in Germany and it snowed overnight on Christmas Eve and we went on a walk Christmas day through the snowy forest :)
✰Transatlantic Blonde✰
Thanks Melaina, that sounds lovely! The two Christmases we have had here, haven’t actually been white! :)
What a brave adventurer! Great shot.
Thanks Mary! More to follow when I get around to posting it! :)
Winter wonderland!
Thanks Becky!
Brilliant picture, your little one looks so small amongst those huge trees!
Thanks Fiona, I didn’t really notice the size of the trees at the time! :)
Aww. Gorgeous picture. He looks so small next to those trees!
He does doesn’t he… Thank you (:
that’s wonderful
Thanks Helen… They had such a fun day! :)
Absolutely gorgeous and magical!
Thanks Peggy… (:
Beautiful picture, it really is Narnia. I love the splash of colour from the boots, too.
Thanks Hayley, tis very kind of you! :)
Just stunning :) and the little red Wellies make this photo complete!
Thanks Suzanne, so glad you like it! :)
Now that is what I call snow! It looks amazing and he looks very small surrounded by all that white! X
Thanks so much Emma! (:
What a wonderful shot!
Thank you Pat! :)
Wow what a winter wonderland! Looks just beautiful, I love the look of your little man inbetween all those huge trees!! What is the splash of colour in the background??
Thank you as always Emma for linking up with Photo of The Week I really appreciate it :)
P.S I nominated you for the Mad Blogs in the Photography section, I always adore your photos. I hope that was ok XXXXX
Thanks so much Louise, that’s so kind of you, of course it’s OK! I am honoured!! :) xxxxxx
PS. It’s a coach :D
I know you are sick of it but seeing this so makes me want more snow!
Actually, we haven’t got very much here at all at the moment… But it’s about to come back I think! Thanks Gemma! :)
Who said Narnia? That is so spot on! Wonderful landscape, beautiful photo!
Thanks so much Fiona! :)
Gorgeous photo. I want to know what the colourful thing is behind the tree.
Thanks so much Laura. It’s a very colourful (and not so fitting with the photograph) coach! :D
So beautiful, just like Narnia! I love it! x
Thank you Mama S. We have had loads more snow since then so it will be even more Narnia-esque! :)
just beautiful! x
Thanks Jenny! :)
LOVE that wintry walk.. I’m so glad you came by to share on Weekly Top Shot #68!
Thank you Madge! :)
Gorgeous! The red of the boots and the red through the trees ties it together so beautifully :)
Thank you so much… I just had to laugh at his sudden burst of energy to rush back and get the boots off. I didn’t tell him that the boots are exactly the reason that skiing and I don’t get on! (:
Wow, I’d love to go somewhere beautiful like that with all that snow.
Thank you! You will be able to take your little one in a couple of years! :)
