A traditional house in the Gosau Valley in Austria. In the foreground are a group of "Neujahrsblaeser" p traditional brass musicians who walk from house to house playing music to wish the households a happy new year. This is a time-honoured tradition, and the gentlemen are of course greeted with some local refreshments!!

That's dedication for you! I guess because I am not used to snow I cannot understand why someone would willingly go walk about and play brass instruments at the same time in it! Very pretty setting none the less.
Nice composition of the house with smoke coming out of the chimney, the snow, the trees, and nice to hear that an old tradition is still being carried on.
