The Starks are always right, eventually—winter is coming, and would you look at that, it's already here in our yards. And it doesn’t feel like leaving. There’s a blizzard raging outside our windows, we’ve got our favorite ugly sweaters on, and we’d gladly exchange our radiators for roaring fireplaces.
Our team here at Bored Panda wanted to share our love for snow and ice wonderlands, so we’ve compiled this list of the most beautiful, jaw-dropping, and outright inspiring winter photos. Mother Nature is far more powerful than we give her credit for.
Don’t forget to put on your gloves, hats, and scarves, dear Pandas, the photos are so powerful, you can almost feel the cold through your screens. We’ve also packed you some hot tea in a thermos because the weather outside is truly frightful. So go on, scroll down and have some fun in the snow. Remember to upvote your fave photos and tell us all about the coldest winter you’ve ever experienced in the comments.
Also, read on for Bored Panda’s interview with photographer Dominic Sberna who told us about working in the cold and staying warm if you’re out in the snow for hours and hours at a time.

I love lake Michigan and it doesn't get as much love as it deserves. She has beaches that look tropical, laps her cerilium blue against Chicago's downtown, licking it's sidewalks of The Magnificent Mile, gives a perfectly flat rocky beach to those in Northern Indiana who wade and float gently into a perfectly cool and refreshingly serene bath of the gods on a sweltering Midwestern summer day. it's a land where pauper's and yachters share the right of way with a smile and a wave. And then her beauty fades, as the fierce winds of winter blow, trying, mightily to subdue her into a placid and silent vixen...only to be met with the shards of all things beautiful as a reminder that she is a woman, not to be dismissed.

Photographer Dominic shared with Bored Panda how professionals and amateurs alike should prepare before venturing out to take photos in the cold.
“When going out in any inclement weather, it's extremely important to dress appropriately for the conditions. Make sure you've got a good pair of gloves to go along with a nice coat. You want to be able to feel your hands, at least a little bit while photographing the winter scenes before you,” he told us.

The cat looks like he's thinking "I'm not coming any further out of this building! It is freaking cold out here!"
“I'm not good about going out in it myself, but once I'm out there, so long as I'm properly dressed for it, you'd be hard-pressed to get me out of the snow. Dress warm! That's the best advice I can give. If you have too many layers on, you can always take a layer of clothing off. It's better to over-prepare than under-prepare in these situations,” Dominic pointed out that it’s best to put in a bit more effort when getting dressed before heading out. We’re talking about our health, after all.
The photographer also shared a few insights about the relationship between snow and lighting. “It really depends on what you're dealing with as far as lighting is concerned. If it's a typical bleak and overcast winter day, you're going to have nice soft shadows,” he told Bored Panda.

“Now if it is a sunny day with a lot of snow, you're going to have high contrasts and harsh shadows. No matter what the weather is, photographing under an overcast sky is always going to be less of a challenge than in direct sunlight," the photographer explained.
Though there are some places on Planet Earth like Fiji, Vanuatu, and Tuvalu that have never seen snow (and likely won’t see it any time soon), the vast majority of countries have gotten snowfall at one time or another. Even hot countries like Egypt see snow from time to time!

That's either for a breeze (mission accomplished) or some sort of communications system (words frozen in time.)
The general rule is that the closer you move towards the equator, the less likely you are to see any of that wonderful thing we call snow. Places with mountains, however, can have snowy peaks, as the high altitudes make for a far better home for ice and snow than the warmth down below.
Some of the chilliest places on our planet include the Eastern Antarctic Plateau which holds the title of the coldest location on Earth at -94 degrees C (that’s -137.2 degrees F!). However, some researchers actually believe that the temperature there might even go lower because of how dry the air is there.

Standing in second place is the Vostok Station in Antarctica. The temperature there was noted to have dropped down to -89.2 degrees C (-128.56 degrees F).
In third place, not far behind, is the Amundsen-Scott Station in the South Pole, built way back in 1956. The lowest temperature recorded there was -82.8 degrees C (-117.04 degrees F) in 1983. However, don’t think that it stays that cold all year round. In fact, in 2011, the temperature rose to -12.3 degrees C (9.86 degrees F). That’s practically summer!
Of course, all of this pales in comparison to the coldness of space. Once you leave the coziness and warmth of our atmosphere, you can enjoy the company of absolute zero which is -273.15 degrees C (-459.67 degrees F).

When it comes to the smallest particles that make up snow, the snowflakes themselves, researchers are still unraveling their mysteries. One thing that we were stunned to learn was the shape of snowflakes changes depending on how cold it gets and what the humidity is.
For instance, at certain temperature points, the snowflakes we know and love can actually start looking like columns.

It’s Been So Cold, I Snapped My Welcome Mat
Lauren Caswell 3 years ago
My first thought "Hm that's a lot of icing sugar dusted onto that brownie" 😅
It’s true that no two snowflakes are alike and we think this definitely proves the involvement of magic on some level when it comes to physics (you should expect your letter to go to Hogwarts any day now).
Snowflakes develop as they move through the air, so each one’s ‘evolution’ is entirely unique. That’s because you can’t replicate the exact same humidity and vapor conditions in every tiny area of the sky. So let’s extend this even further: it’s not just every snowflake that’s unique, it’s absolutely each and every pile of snow and blizzard. From the tiny to the vast. You might not see it in the photos, but the fact is always there.

Our upstate NY town decided to save money by installing LED stop lights. 5 years later, 1/2 the LEDs in the lights are dead. Plus the old incandescent lamps melted the snow off of the display. The LEDs don't. Which led the Highway Department to clear stop lights after a heavy snow. A great deal of money lost. Idiots.

In the un-insulated houses of the pioneer days, frost would form on nails inside the log cabins and other makeshift dwellings. During really bad cold snaps, the house would never get warm enough to melt the frost, and the frost would grow and grow. You'd get spikes of frost sticking out of the nails, spikes that could reportedly get up to six inches long...

I did this with a bottle of champagne once. Put it in the freezer for quick chilling, forgot it was in there... BANG. Champagne snow and bits of broken glass everywhere.

We once left a bottle of wine in our mobile vacation home. It got down to 13 F. The bottle cork blew out and the wine spray was very interesting. Didn't do that again.

Can Anyone Explain How This Ice Is Formed On Our Car Windscreen? The Weather Was Raining Then Froze Quickly But Only To Around -1C
Brian Bennett 3 years ago
No explanation necessary - the damn thing froze anyway - wind chill factor!
Jihana 3 years ago
The wind chill factor does NOT change the actual temperature, it only feels colder since the wind blows away the warmth created by your body. -1 is -1, no matter how strong the wind is.

I've only had to deal with ice like this twice, and it's the Worst. If your doors open, there's a chance the handle doesnt go back into place and wont shut properly. That if you can pry the door open, regardless of if you can unlatch it.

Good Thing I Was Wearing My Winter Coat Last Night. It Was A Little Brisk
M O'Connell 3 years ago
Digital temperature sensors often have a slope of 10mV/°C, but are only really reliable down to -40. I would assume the sensor has vailed and is outputting 0V. The sign controller software probably doesn't account for this and follows that slope all the way down to 0V, which would represent -196°F

I lived in Central Alberta for nearly a decade. Sadly this has remained true for every year I lived there but most city workers won't deal with it till it warms up. Ice, snow, freezing rain, doesn't matter what it is. It needs to warm up before they do something and by that time, people have been hurt. I've dislocated my shoulder, fractured my tailbone, sprained my knee.... the list goes on.
