The first snow fell here a week ago, though snow that didn't melt immediately fell only on Wednesday. Then yesterday, it snowed all day, 15 cm. Today, -8°C and sunshine -- and strong winds. I could barely open my eeyey on the way back from the photo tour, when the wind blew the snow from rooftops into my face.

Here is a street nearby, with characteristic houses, lack of 90° angles, and ugly poles and lines:

Footbridge over the creek (looks picturesque, but the creek still carries untreated wastewater):

BTW, anyone here who did a seasons series, that is a photo at the same location in four seasons? I planned one at the above location in 2009, but I didn't feel like it to continue when my dog died. Now maybe in 2010.

Re: Snow near Budapest, too (none / 1)

Don't be too hard on the overhead power lines. When it comes time to upgrade them to a "smart grid," it will be a lot easier in your neighborhood than in areas where the lines are in underground rights of way--and therefore blocked from access by bushes, fences, and gardens... :-)

I, for one, would be interested in seeing pictures of your overhead power transformers, cell towers, phone lines, ham radio antennas, and other such unsightly things!

Re: Snow near Budapest, too (4.00 / 4)

You call that "ugly polls and lines" ? That's nothing compared to what one can see in Hanoi...
