The first morning after the first snow...

Photo made in Bijlmerweide, a small natural area on walking distance from where I live, in Amsterdam SouthEast, the Netherlands. Happiness… The first morning after the first snow… The only thing is to get up early enough, and to be sure to be out there when the sun rises… Then you can get this, on an early winter morning… a beautiful light and a fascinating landscape, trees immersed in silence… Happiness is… just being part of this… Layered with texture by Kim Klassen (www.kimklassencafe.com )
