I am interested in nature and its preservation thence the name of my blog. I enjoy the scenes of the countryside and the sea. Venturing into the countryside at the present time is a bit tricky since the snow is about 15cms deep, and with the snow there is the threat of what local radio stations are calling "Thundersnow", lightening and thunder during snow storms. This aspect of the winter is giving great inspiration, but needs careful thought regarding travel. The whiteness of the surroundings gives a picture postcard effect, which any artist or photographer surely finds inspirational.
