A mother pulling a Christmas tree on a sleigh with her child telling her
something. Three childern, one of which is sitting on a sleigh, being
drawn by the eldest. A chap on his bicycle stopping to greet a friend.
The whole city is covered in white, childern are loving it. The roads
are a mess, and people are being encouraged to take public
transportation. It was a lovely brisk sunny day yesterday, thus despite
the freezing temperature, I took it upon myself to capture this unique
situation, here in my neighbourhood. The theme of this work is snow,
thus that is the point of interest I wanted to bring across. Therefore I
purposely did not pay attention to the detail of the architecture of
the houses. Rather choosing to highlight the effect of the freshly
frozen snow on the objects at hand.
