Januari var kall i Älvsbyn. Utetemperaturen har legat nedåt -35 °C. Men nu i februari – som brukar vara årets kallaste månad – har temperaturen stigit. Än så länge i alla fall. När jag var ute för att fotografera björken snöade det. Nu ligger utetemperaturen och pendlar runt nollsträcket.
January was cold in Älvsbyn. The outdoor temperature dropped to around -35 °C. But now in February – usually the coldest month of the year – the temperature is higher. So far at least. When I was outside to photograph the birch it was snowing. Now the outdoor temperature is around 0 °C.
I had to wade through snow to get to the birch.
The birch.
Looking up along the stem.
Ice figures on the bark.
I can see both a skull and a butterfly. What do you see?
Looking down along the stem.
Plants still decorate the graves.
The snow reached about half way up to my knee.

Lovely pictures – I feel I need to wrap up warm just looking at them!
I particularly like the view looking up at the branches.
All the best 🙂
the snow is deep! it looks beautiful and your tree, Frances
Not as deep as it should be here at this time of year, but at least we have snow.
