Photos of snow days are all over Instagram – in fact, anywhere you look on social media at the moment. Scotland and some other parts of the UK are enjoying a fresh dump of deep, powdery, snow, that is forecast to last for at least another day. Snow days are way less common now than they used to be in the 1800’s, when lakes routinely froze over and a ‘Frost fair’ was held on the river Thames. These days, snow is a bit of a novelty, even where I live in the Highlands of Scotland. I love snow and have posted my fair share of snow shots over the last couple of days. This post was going to be about enjoying snow, having fun, grabbing a childlike lens and forgetting about the woes of winter. The thing is, I was thinking that it’s actually the lack of worries, that mean we get to enjoy the snow in the first place.
