No eternal reward will forgive us now for wasting the dawn*. On a day like today, granted to us as a gift to our souls by the Almighty, it behoves one to make the most of it. So I walk to Platan Park for my morning meeting, giving myself a full hour and a quarter for the five-and-half kilometre journey. Enjoy.

right: No commentary needed; just stunning beauty of winter on ul. Trombity this morning. The snow on the wires against the crystal blue sky makes it for me.
Below: ul. Poloneza all the way from ul. Jeziorki to the junction of ul. Poleczki (bottom).
I must say I much prefer days like this to high summer - so much more bracing!


I apologise to no one for using a polarising filter to accentuate the contrast between snow and sky - after all, wearing polarising sunglasses, this is what the scenes looked like to me.

Michael. Really nice photo session. I love rural landscapes of "Zielony Ursynów" less than 8 miles from the city center.
Michael,
this is a set of marvellous pics as always done by you. I begin to incline myself to think, that you have something common with a professional photography. Your photographic arts are something more than hobby works. This set proves such a concept. So, how's that?
Rgds.
Thanks Marcin for your kind words -this is pure hobby for me - the only pics I take professionally are of business people and politicians (and then only infrequently). I've been taking photos trying to capture Spirit of Place since the early 1980s; 30 years experience helps!
Yes, winter strikes again, but it's not so bad as it was. Moreover, it should be warmer in the weekend.
no one accepts your apologies.
In earnest - beautiful pics, those sights of snow-covered suburb probably were probably the last this winter. I sense it's over soon.
