Snowing in the park

Brussels

This is the main park of Brussels called Bois de la Cambre. This is actually our "Central Park"
It is the place where our city people would regularily go for all kinds of outdoor activities, in all kinds of weather as you can see from this photo.
The fact that our office is located just at the entrance to the park, makes it a very imortant part of our daily life. It is there where we spend most of our lunch breaks especially on a nice weather.
That morning I was driving through the park on my way to work, in the middle of a heavy snow storm when I spotted these people near the lake.
They were just walking there, in their colorful clothes, completely ignoring the bad weather and they seem to enjoy every moment of it. It was almost surrealistic. I stopped the car and took this shot.

It is not easy to take a convincing shot of a snowfall. This one is a success

Nice shot Moti but would you like to explain a little on how this is the essence of where you live. Some commentry is needed most times to get the shots on topic. Thanks mate:-)
