Ciao John
bentornato, è un piacere vederti di nuovo presente.
Il tempo passa in fretta, ma l'importante è non dimenticarsi degli amici.
Tre foto che mi fanno venire i brividi, ovviamente dal freddo, ma che ci offrono la giusta sensazione per quei momenti.
Buona domenica
Carlo

Hi John

So you're back on TE after 11 months of silence! Welcome back!
It should be hard to climb this snowy mountain in the mist, hard to find the path to reach the top, hard to have a break at the summit in the wind, even with a hot tea. But when you come home, you are happy
Cheers
CLODO

Hello John,
Finally you found a photo to show us. This looks just as cold and dark and miserable as anywhere in Sweden in winter. I can understand the satisfaction and pleasure felt when you finally made it to the summit after a steep trek in this weather. If it wasn't for the fence it might have been easy to get lost in this fog. The fence also makes a good lead into the photo until it is lost halfway up, just beyond your half hidden friend. The other friend of yours is well placed in the foreground, where he provides the only colourful spot in this fascinating grey haze.
Kind regards,
Gert
PS I saw this photo last night, before you had added the workshops, so now I forgot to look for them. Now I have seen them and they are both interesting photos, the one with the hillwalkers even looking quite cosy.

Hello John,
Good to see you posting again, your pictures are always worthy of interest. The image is well composed with the two walkers joined by an imaginary diagonal line and the fence supplying a lead-line into the misty background. Perfectly exposed to capture the mood; the cold is quite palpable.

Hello John,

The prodigal son is back, I am happy.
I hope that the winter fits long wait to coming, I am a summer man.
The snow and misty atmosphere makes your picture very attractive.
Pleasant panorama too.
Excellent composition and nice presentation too.
Very well done, TFS.

Best regards,
John

Hi John
well look who's back! welcome back to TE and its frustrations, just think, what other photo website has such problems - TE is very unique that way hahaha.

you were brave to head out into this experience, was the weather like that when you started or did it just kinda creep up on ya? I know the local weather there has a habit of doing just that.

I like how we can't even see very far, not far beyond the person higher up in the frame. well done, I'm sure you shared good stories and good laughs.

As for the notes, what I do now is I post the photo with only 2 or 3 sentences...then post it. If the note gets posted, i'll just 'edit' it and add my full note right away...if the note doesn't get posted it ALWAYS will when you add and 'edit' it after...not a big deal. Live and learn!

lovely photo with this atmosphere and personal experience, I like the blue tones and story. cheers my friend
cheers

One thing I envy people living in the north of this country (and anywhere else in Europe really) is the weather - the fact that it's different in winter than in summer, autumn etc. Here, in the south you can hardly tell whether it's July or March without checking the calendar...
Anyway, nice series of three photos from your walk, incorporating differents genre and styles: portrait, adventure, detail. All united by snow and frost.
Have a nice evening
Kasia
Ps. You expressed everyone's frustrution with the site in your note. My sentiments precisely.

Hi John,
I laughed reading your note! So funny! This site is indeed quite annoying and yet addictive.
Just few hours ago I have uploaded a photo and its miniature icon on the beta site is still not visible.
I wrote a long complain on the forum which I know will be ignored :)

Anyway, as long as you became fit and healthier I can forgive you your absence, just promise never do that again :)

Interesting reportage from a trail. So much snow!. Interesting effect with the decreasing visibility. People and the fence play such an important role here.
Very well done!!
