So, I just did a quick scout now to find a picture that grabbed my eye.
It's San Francisco, taken from a helicopter, by photographer Michael Shainblum.
I like the colours, the contrast of the beauty of nature against the beauty of the urban landscape.
I love how it makes you feel tiny and huge all at the same time.
It looks so cool and you can almost feel the icy wind whipping through your hair - it takes me back to my own (ground level) adventures in San Fran.

What's the coldest you've ever been?
I really hate the cold. HATE IT. I lived in Dublin for a year and I think I was cold the entire year. I was travelling and being stingy and never bought myself a decent coat and clothing, my clothes from Australia were just useless.
ReplyDeleteThe coldest place I have been was in Switzerland, to the top of the Schilthorn, it's about 3000m above sea level. IT was REALLY cold, I had so many layers on I was the michelin woman! But the view was spectacular!
ReplyDeleteIt's a tossup - Coldest - Shannon's Flat in a cabin with no electricity and the snow at Mt Selwyn too - we were ill prepared.
ReplyDeleteCrossing over and through the Snowy mountains one COLD December day on a push bike !
Cool image.
I hate the cold. I will avoid it at all costs. I love this photo.
ReplyDeleteI think when I lived in New York and didn't have water proof footwear and used to walk around in the snow and my toes would be SOOOOO cold. I soon wised up and got great boots and stomped around with warm tootsies! Then again living in rural NZ, Alexandra where it's freezing eg often not above 0 and going out without proper clothes. Great pic x
