Peter's Paris: Ice

19.1.12

Ice

My « real » post for today is below, but from a walk yesterday morning I thought I had to show that Paris had this winter's first frost night and that there was just enough of thin ice to support the seagulls. It’s getting warmer again.

Virginia said...: I see that it's going to rain and be cloudy the rest of the week. I'd like to think Paris is "weeping" because I've left !HA I believe I saw more seagulls in Paris this week than I have on trips to the beach!

Cergie said...: Bien entendu cette photo n'est pas d'aujourd'hui (nous avons +11 de plus) ni d'hier (+1), peut-être de samedi (-3) ou plus vraisemblablement de dimanche ?
On dirait que le plan d'eau s'est fait une raie bien droite...; 19 January 2012 at 11:40

hpy said...: La surface de l'eau a gelé par chez nous aussi il y a quelques jours, mais maintenant il pleut dessus. Et je crois bien que la surface a fondu
depuis. Le temps n'est pas terrible, mais les mouettes supportent tout, même la couche de glace qui les supporte.; 19 January 2012 at 12:57

Kate said...: A different view of Paris that you normally post, and I like it!; 19 January 2012 at 14:43
Nathalie said...: Peter - what do you mean, "my real post"??? This is worth a post in its own right, it's an amazing photo, especially when you think it's been taken in Paris. Where exactly?; 19 January 2012 at 16:31

claude said...: Ici après deux ou trois matinées avec ds gelées, il fait doux comme au printemps.
Très beau et instructif ton précédent post.; 20 January 2012 at 08:27
delphinium said...: C'est fou quand même ces variations de température. Notre organisme est mis à rude épreuve. Il a fait un froid de canard durant toute la semaine et soudain hier, les températures remontent. Aujourd'hui il pleut en plaine. En montagne, le temps paraît agité. Je crois que je vais rester au chaud.
Dis, où sont les patins à glace pour ces petites bestioles??; 20 January 2012 at 08:50
La Petite Gallery said...: Fantastic photo Peter.
Love your head, you have a great eye for beauty.

Jeanie said...: Oh, I do love this! I reminds me of a post I did about two weeks ago, where the ducks were doing as your seagulls do -- standing and walking along the reflected frozen waters of my favorite pond. I do love the white on white, though!; 20 January 2012 at 22:21
