Photographer's Note
I wanted to keep this photo for Christmas greetings, but the desire to show the snow we haven't seen for years at the beginning of December made me make this decision. You know the church in my town, the square too .. but let me enjoy being one of the first to show snow this year.
Avrei voluto tenere questa foto per gli auguri di Natale, ma la voglia di mostrare la neve che non vedevamo da anni all'inizio di Dicembre, mi ha fatto prendere questa decisione. La chiesa del mio comune la conoscete , la piazza anche..ma lasciatemi godere di essere uno dei primi a mostrare la neve quest'anno.

Hello Luciano,
Wow, you have already snow in the beginning of December. I didn't know the weather was already that cold in the north of Italy.
Yes, I do remember the church on the square that is now also decorated with a Christmas tree.
I see that the snow on the street has already become a bit soggy.
Where I live in Belgium, we don't have snow every winter and when it snows, it is beautiful at the time of the snowfall and an hour later everything already looks dirty.
Even in this weather, the colours of the facades are still beautifully reflected.
Best regards, Paul

Bonsoir Luciano,
L'arbre de Noël cadre bien l'église. La prise de vue permet de voir les détails de l'église sous la neige. Ici, la neige est tombée mais elle a fondu. Noël sera tranquille en 2020 avec toutes les restrictions. Bonne soirée.

Hi Luciano,
This is a classic Christmas photo, with snow falling and snow on the Christmas tree and the ground. Good composition with the church in the background.

Hi Luciano
Early snow arriving in town and its time to dust off. So quiet that you have captured the moment well with nice colour and visual composition.
Best regards

Salut Luciano,
Belle prise de ces premières neiges, cela va bien avec l'atmosphère festive de Noël avec ce sapin décoré, bon effet avec les flocons, bon on enlèverait volontiers les fils mais c'est ainsi et nécessaire ...

Hi Luciano,
Wow, you really are the first one to show snow of this season, excluding mountain peaks! Christmas tree and snow is a great combination, I love it. Here in Tampere we have some snow at the moment, but it will probably melt away today.

Ciao Luciano, We know this view of the church in Cuggiono very well but it is a great pleasure to see it under snow and with the decorated Christmas tree. Probably you have a slightly different composition so you could use again as a perfect Christmas postcard. Fantastic picture.
The situation in Poland is dramatic, I have no mood for Christmas. There are restrictions for inviting the guests. Also in Italy, it is very hard as I read.
Have a nice weekend (?)

Looks as high winter already, Luciano.
Well employed the low light condition, picture is vivid and clear, as much as the snow-flakes in the air can be seen on the image.
Wish you a nice weekend,
Ike

Hello Luciano,
This is a surprise. More snow in Cuggiono than in Stockholm. (We have nothing.) The Christmas tree and the church are very nice features and almost make me ignore that the snow actually looks very wet and unpleasant. By now it is probably gone, but you managed to take a nice photo while it lasted.
Best regards,
Gert

Ciao Luciano
It was considerate of the snow to fall early to give you something interesting to photograph! Good sharpness and nice motion blur of the flakes. The Christmas tree at left, now bedecked with fresh snow, steals the show from the impressive bg church! Tfs!

We get a nice panorama view of the first snow, you play excellent with light and shadows.
Nice wintery image, but for me to cold !
With wonderful details, nice image.
As always very sharp and clear photographed.
Very well done, TFS.
Nice weekend,
John.

Hello Luciano,
That is pretty early snow indeed and even though it is just a gentle layer, it still creates a very nice mood. Good shot with the church and the Christmas tree.

First snow, Luciano!
I hope you did not get tooo much. As far as I can remember, the last white Christmas here in Rhineland was in 2010.
Keep safe, and good luck!

Ciao Luciano,
I know it is rare in your area but because it is, you always show photos of it so I know this view from the winter photos mainly :)
Beautiful winter scenery. I didn't see much snow last year I wonder whether it will come this year to England.
Very well done,
M

Hello again,
Congratulations on the first snow! So far, we have to miss it! :( On your photo I especially like the red and vivid ornaments against the dull environment.
Best Wishes,
Gy.

Bonjour, cher ami Luciano,
Je comprends le besoin de présenter cette prise de vue sous la neige.
L'église bénéficie d'une architecture élégante et ressort bien avec le blanc environnant.
Amitiés.

Ciao caro Luciano,
I understand your desire to share this picture of snow in Milan! I'm sure it doesn't happen very often!
I like how well you have composed the photograph, the Christmas tree featuring strongly in the f/g, with its colourful decorations. You have slotted it neatly into the gap between the two buildings.
The whole scene is united by the falling snow!
We had snow, too. Our grandchildren face-timed us to watch it falling! Sadly, by the time it was light enough to photograph, it had turned to sleet and was melting!
My warm regards,
Bev :-)

HI Luciano!
I`ve seen the Milan snow in german TV.
This is fine composition with the christmas tree and these bicycle racks. I have been in Milan 1990, but have not seen much of the town .I was in the stadium for two world cup games.
Regards,Ronny
stay Healthy!

Ciao Luciano,
I recognize this spot from previous photos of yours. :-) It looks so pretty with the snow falling and covering the Christmas tree. The church looks lovely, too. When I have enough photos to start my annual Christmas tree theme, I will add this photo. Take care!

Ciao amico Luciano,
Quanto è bella la tua foto con la neve. Lo scenario è davvero molto più bello. Neanche io potevo sopportare l'ansia e vorrei essere il primo a postare una foto. Lo scenario con la vecchia Chiesa sullo sfondo e l'albero di Natale ha reso il tutto ancora più bello. Complimenti per la tua foto e grazie per la condivisione. Sono stato in Italia nel 2018 tra Natale e Capodanno, ma non ho preso un giorno che si possa dire che effettivamente faceva freddo, l'inverno era molto simile a quello che abbiamo qui nel sud del Brasile, con temperature che vanno da 3 a 14 gradi. Durante il viaggio che ho fatto nel 2019 in Germania e Polonia, ho avuto modo di osservare vere e proprie nevicate, compreso l'utilizzo di piccoli camion per scaricare la neve dalle strade.
Abraços desde o Brasil

Hi Luciano.
It is certainly a beautiful postcard, which would be ideal for Christmas, but I understand that you would like to upload it now, we knew the church but with the snow and the Christmas tree it acquires a special charm.
In all the north of Spain it is snowing a lot, but here in the center it is rare that we see it.
Very good color that strengthens the image.
Superb brightness and sharpness management to enjoy the details.
Well seen and done. I like.
You have a good day.
Very best regards.
Luis.
