East fjords, Iceland

Great pic, knocker. Looking forward to being down there in March.

Yes it was magical Sam.To get as far north as the edge of the Polar ice was something else.

Blakey may be a dialect-ish version of 'Bleak'.

The distant ridge is the Howardian Hills in the vicinity of Castle Howard.

The snowman looks rather lonely on his own.  I have never every managed to make a snowman as there has never been enough snow fallen in Thurrock.  The snowman looks very well built.
