Snow

Early after our arrival, we had a couple days of snow, not exactly rare in London, but unusual enough as to cause the entire public transportation system to grind to a halt.

Winter from the Travelodge

In the first week we had a light settling of snow on the rooftops as seen here from the lovely Travelodge room.

A few weeks later in February a deeper snow fell, as you can see here in Clapham Common.

I don't quite know why the pictures ended up with this strong green cast (I need to re-scan them and colour correct better I think), but I like the ghostly feel it imparts, contrasting with the intense reds from the car and street lights.

You can see more pictures from this set here.
