If you haven't been over to the OUTDOORSmagic
Gallery recently, now's a good time for a quick
browse through the latest images. People are just starting to upload
pictures from Christmas and New Year trips into the hills and, as you
might expect, some of the results are simply lovely with a lot of snowy
clearness, awesome sun-sets and the odd inversion to whet your appetite.
Don't forget, all OM members, have three free megabytes of gallery
space to share their pics with the world, so if you've got some lovely
shots burning a hole in your hard disc, then get on over and
upload them today :-)
World Turned Upside Down
TrickyD spent New Year over on Cadair Idris with some
fantastic atmospheric results, including a spectacular inversion and a
rare Brocken Spectre - the whole album's worth a look, but here's that
Brocken Spectre for you....
Carneddau Views
More good stuff from Marcus Crompton, this time slightly
further north with views looking from the Carnedds into central
Snowdonia, this is the classic view of the Ogwen Valley from Pen yr Ole
Wen.

On Starav
Heading north of the border, Adrian Kay spent Hogmany on
Ben Starav and produced some lovely shots in the process with more
inversions. We like this shot of ridge walking above the clouds, but
the rest of the album is well worth checking out
too.

Looking South
More
Hogmany shots from Ayshire Tiger, this is the view south from the
southeast ridge of Beinn Tulaichean. You've got to love those sun
flares, nice :-)
Black Mountains Looking
White
Imperial Dave's been in the well-frosted
Black Mountains and they look lovely. This is the view towards Pen y
Fan - but the rest of the album's rather lovely too :-)

Wildcamp!
Alan Bellis has been wild-camping at Llyn Edno and reeping
the rewards in terms of photos. This is the sunset from his campsite,
which isn't bad at all...
More cloud in the valley with clear tops from Dave Moore,
we're not sure exactly where, but hey, it looks good to use wherever it
is.

A Dog With A Camera...
The
Littlest Hobo is back, this time with photographic equipment and a
bike... Just step off the edge onto the nice, soft blanket of
clouds.... Cross Fell if you were wondering.

And One More For Luck...
Something a little more foreign from Ed H. This is, erm,
we're not sure, but we like it anyway. Happy New Year :-)

And that's it for now.
Plenty more where those came from in the OM
Gallery, Happy New Year and enjoy :-)
