Is this Pindos???

No...these are some Mountains in Albania. A half hour drive from my house you can see Albania vary clearly.

That's beautiful! I love to see the snow in the high mountain, while I nice and warm where I live. :>)

How far from your house are these mountains?

21 Jan, 2012

 

I feel the same way....that day was so warm and clear I was driving with the window down.

Far, Corfu Channel separates us. You can't see the Channel because of the way I took the pic....I have some more that you can see the channel as well but they were a little blurry.

If you look at a map....Agios Stefanos (my home) is NW and Albania is NE........and yet we cans see the mountains.

This was taken four minutes up the hill from my house.

I noticed on the map how close Albania is to you.

You have a great view of the mountains. I can see our local mountains from my front yard. However, it's definitely not as clear as your view. Mount Laguna and its mountain range is a 1 hour drive away from me. Last year the snow came down to 3,000ft/914m.

You had to see the view today....amazing (further North). I could see a village. It was a real clear day...and I saw fresh snow.

I can't picture you near snow....

The local mountains in San Diego County (Lagunas and Cuyamacas, which are the highest mountains at almost 7,000ft/2134m) get snow 4 to 8 times a year. However, even at the top of Mt. Laguna (at 6,000ft/1828m), and Mt. Cuyamaca the snow doesn't stay around more than a few days. The high mountains around Los Angeles are much higher and the snow stays around most of the winter (there's even ski resorts on them).

You'll have get some more pics of the village and snow. :>)

22 Jan, 2012

 

I will take the camera with me everyday...(if I remember). It seems that I'm rushing all the time....

22 Jan, 2012

 

I have 2 cameras, one in my car at all times as a backup...also I have an iPhone, which has a camera. I'm always prepared. :>)

I may be getting a DLSR camera, possibly this spring. How spoiled am I? lol! :>)

22 Jan, 2012

 

Oh boy....you are really rubbing it in aren't you?!?!?!?

Good for you...more pictures for us to enjoy.

I have two camera's as well but I don't like leaving either of them in the car....it's too hot (or too cold). Yours must be boiling.

I decided I'm going to buy a mobile phone with a really good camera....never leave home without my mobile.

22 Jan, 2012

 

I have my camera in a insulated camera bag. It stays in my car's trunk and I have had no problems with the heat.
Of course, my car is always in the garage when I'm not at work or driving about.

The newer mobile phones have excellent cameras. Some are as high as 5 megapixels.

22 Jan, 2012

 

My car is parked outside...all the time.

My daughter's mobile has a 5 megapixel camera plus it has macro and zoom.
