Time for another Hockney style composite to "celebrate" the arrival of winter. This is a road called Allevägen in Lida. I had to stop here because of all the snow and ice on the road, and figured it was time for a few photos. Bigger photo is way cooler. I try riding all year. Cold weather isnt really a problem. If it's -10C you need to protect your face, the problem is when it's around freezing, with the icy roads, and sometimes the snow plower "forgets" about the bike paths and walkways which forces me to ride on the road and that can be scary. If you enjoy these types of photos I have a flickr Set with a few more.
I made a bike ride/winter video :

This was very cool! I think I'd be too nervous to ride on snow/ice, and then to add a camera is even more nerve-wracking. I'm glad you didn't crash and break a leg.
very creative style! love it!

Ha ha thanks! Great comment. We do have a long summer you know. I spend many hours on my bike then as well, often on my way to the beach. There's more bike videos at my vimeo site. I do have to say that I am a summer person, but that I really love winter photography.
