"Portes du Soleil" (January 2003)
After a snowfall, the mountain is covered with a uniform white snow cover.
It is the opportunity to make some photographs...
But we don't have always sun.
We got a two days of strong storms, where about 80cm of snow fell during the week.
Then I take the advantage to make some photographs:

On a small footpath, we discovers pretty a decoration in the landscape...

A winter (2004?), a good snowfall has become.
So I take again my camera...
Here are 2 photographs of Cortaillod after this snowfall:
Here also what arrives when snow is still fresh.
Sometimes a wind goes down from the Jura slopes and blow in gust on the villages close to the Jura, like Bevaix here.
Blow cover the roads with 5~10cm of snow, which obliges to use again the snowplough by good weather!
Here is an example:

Here are 3 photographs of Boudry, just after a serious snowfall in the night:
One morning, the snowfall of the night continue in the morning.
So I jump in my car, and I go directly in Neuchatel before it stops.
And here a selection of some photographs of Neuchatel under snow:

Anticyclonic periods are present in winter in French-speaking Switzerland.
When the air of the anticyclone comes from hot and wet maritime area, then the low atmosphere are inevitably transformed
into fog.
So It is the occasion to discover splendid landscapes...
