Real Life Photos of Skyrim

Awesome pics. I love to travel myself, and recently went to patagonia, which had a few glaciers. I think there are supposed to be some in Skyrim?

Too far south has nothing to do with it. It's too low of elevation.

If I drove 50 miles up the mountain the lakes would be frozen right over.

Along with most of the atmosphere, assuming you mean vertically. ;)

Where I live there's only one huge waterfall for a 100km which remains unfrozen in winter. Every other river and lake, and even the sea is frozen thick enough to drive on. But I'm a lot further north, in the land which inspired Skyrim. :happy:

On the other hand I envy your mountains. We don't have big ones up here.

Ok, I'll post a http://i55.tinypic.com/290v5ft.jpg that reminds me of Skyrim. Taken at the Cascades here in Virginia early last year if I recall.

Looks awesome, if only there were some ice trolls lurking amongst the trees. :tongue:

I'm not sure what swapping pics has to do with Skyrim much except some of us live in cold places.

Instead of walking, I just snapped one looking out from my pc:

Or there is my driveway in my sig.

All my others are on my external drive and if I'm to lazy to take a walk and snap some pictures, I'm too lazy to get my external drive out.

I could probably get pictures like that if I was able to go out and travel. http://i681.photobucket.com/albums/vv175/Proditus/download.jpg.

Here's to hoping that Skyrim has plenty of places that aren't snow, because I've had enough of it already :P

I've started going on hikes with the outdoors club at the local college. Yesterday I decided to take some pictures just for you guys.
These are 13 of my favourites ones.

Sorry for the poor quality, but they're from my cell phone.


Uggh, RL has terrible graphics, turn on tesselation :tongue:

Unfortunately spring weather is coming and my 3 feet of snow is melting :sadvaultboy: I'll miss my snow.

Nice! I live in a very similar-looking area of Northern Ontario. Canada is indeed a beautiful place.
