Here either. At the south there's -26 Celsius degrees. In Warsaw we're a bit warmer, but still it's cold.

No snow. Only something, that pretends to be named "snow" - small white stains here and there.

Wow the detail in this is just amazing. I can appreciate how long it must have taken you to get every last bit of this done. The color scheme you use also brings about almost a gloomy, poisonous, 'beware' sort of feeling; almost as if it's in a murky 'Swamp of Ill Tidings' of sorts. Or even a Forest of Ill Tidings. You get my gist I'm sure.
Everything from the vines growing on the arch to the blades of grass to the cracks in the stairs leading up are so fine tuned to give it an all around amazing feel. The shadows are amazingly done as well and bring this to a nice life. Even the blurred trees in the distance really brings the cave et al in front to a nice focus. And, despite the overall feel of the piece, and that eternal blackness leading inside, it still makes me want to venture in to see what lies inside.
