NASA have released an incredible photo taken by their Terra satellite showing the extent of Britain’s big freeze – and we’ve been out and about taking pictures of the icy conditions around London.
In Hyde Park in central London, the vast Serpentine lake has entirely frozen up and the famous fountains in Trafalgar Square have been solid blocks of ice for many days.
Click below to check out the chilly NASA satellite pic and see a gallery of photos from our travels around London.
All photos were taken on the Lumix LX3 camera which recent won our ‘Best High End Compact of 2009‘ award.

Hyde Park freeze – A frozen lake, gas lamps and lots of snow!
Really like the gas lights one.
(awaits some Scot/Canuck/Scandanavian coming along to say ‘pah that isn’t snow’) LOL
Great pics as always. I love the Brixton ones as I grew up there. Snow place like /home
Lovely pictures. I don’t remember London ever been as cold as this.
