Saturday Snapshots #186

Chatel © J Horak-Druiff 2013

Me and my shadow – Chatel, France

There is absolutely nothing that clears my mind of all the clutter as completely as being alone, on a pair of skis, on a snowy mountain.  It tests my body, it challenges my brain, and it gives my spirit space to breathe. To read more about our truly memorable ski holiday this year, have a look at my post on Chalet Cateriane, a luxury catered ski chalet in Chatel.

 

Saturday Snapshots is a series of non-food photographs published every Saturday on CookSister.  Previously featured photographs can be viewed on the Saturday Snapshots archive page. Many photos featured in Saturday Snapshots are available to buy as high-quality greeting cards or prints in my RedBubble store, or even as high-quality A3-size calendars. If you want a custom calendar with your own selection of photos, starting with any month (not only January), please e-mail me and we can discuss your requirements.  New calendars for 2012 include FLOWERS and RAW – they make great gifts, for friends, family or for yourself.

More deliciousness for you!

    I feel myself squinting at that glorious sunlight beaming off the snow. 🙂 I love being up in the mountains too. I’m not a good downhill skier, but I really enjoyed an evening of snowshoeing at the top of a mountain in Washington. 🙂 Absolutely magical and gorgeous. 🙂

    I’ve never been on skies. Heck, I’ve never even been on snow. But I can imagine that its a wonderful way to clear your head.
