So much like where I live in Alaska. I don't like those super bitter days any more, my body is just getting to old to really enjoy them. But yes that clear blue sky, so in frequent except on those bitter cold days, really makes the blue stand out and the snow really pop and show its glory.
Thanks @manorvillemike for the translation of your post.
I was lucky with a clear sky, if there was a gray and gloomy sky, the photos would not have turned out so atmospheric :)
