The UK is in the grip of winter right now, snow, frost, fog; airport closures, motorway jams and rail cancellations.
Not really so bad here on the east coast, very cold but current weather conditions have provided a hoar frost show in the garden.

Winter Log Pile – Hallstatt, Austria
The village is set on piles driven into the lake with an intricate system of intersecting timber ramps, butresses and ascending terraces like hanging gardens creating an air of mystery and the eeriness of mirage, a village that seems to be almost lost in the middle-mist of folklore and fable. The mountain flanks rise sheer from the lake, leaving no room for a road and all but the smallest of vehicles are prohibited from entering the centre of the village. We walked through streets with houses sometimes built into the mountain, sometimes hanging on to the mountain and at other times on top of the mountain and on the other side they were built right up to the edge of the lake.
