We’ve been in Belfast for a few months now, and it’s been cold. Colder than usual, which has come with snow (more snow than usual). I think I might prefer it to the normal Irish winter, which tends to be a combination of dark, rain, and wind. The days are getting longer, but are still short, but in the couple weeks when snow and frost were on the ground, the skies seemed clear and the days brighter, illumined by the snow.

Here are some photos I snapped with my new phone (gifted to me just before Christmas by someone upgrading – the first time I’ve had a phone that can do anything but make phone calls), mostly from windows in our flat:
