It can be felt that Winter really has arrived. This past Friday when I woke up it was snowing for the first time this season in Vienna. In the morning it was snowing heavily but in the afternoon it diminished and in the evening there was no snow on the street. But since that day every time I wake up I see something white on the opposite roof. Maybe because of the lockdown it is very quiet now and very few people are out on the street. When I took those pictures my hands got really cold and I felt my fingers freeze. I immediately had to put on gloves, which was the first time this season. I felt that Winter had also somehow crept into my body. It seems that only the christmas street lights provide warmth to me…
冬の到来を感じるこの頃。先週の金曜日は、初雪が降りました。午前中降りしきっていた雪は、だんだんその勢いを弱め、夜には通りが濡れただけの状態になっていました。それ以来、毎朝起きると、向かいの家の屋根がうっすら白くなっています。ロックダウンのせいか、辺りは静まり返って、通りを行く人も少ないです。街の写真を撮っている最中、手がとても寒くなって、指がかじかんできました。私は慌てて手袋を付けました。この冬初めての着用です。まるで私の体の内まで、冬が入ってきたかのように感じました。街のクリスマスのための灯りが、私を暖めてくれているようです。
