  • Sunday sunshine

    On Sunday afternoon, I went out adventuring with my friends Jordan and Kathleen and their two kids. We headed out to the same pressure ridge on the lake that I posted about a little while ago. This time the lighting was amAAAAZing! I'd had a relatively low, 'February Blues' kind of week, culminating in a bit of an 'I'm sick of Winter now!' rant on Friday, so it was really great to get outside in the fresh air and enjoy the snow again.

    The only problem was that my camera batteries were too cold, so I had a lot of trouble getting shots in before it would shut down. In between bouts of trying to warm the batteries in my hands, I dropped the camera (shutter open) face-down into the snow. The resulting fogginess and moisture would, I thought, ruin the photos and maybe the camera itself. But I was surprised to see that the melting snow on the lens made for some really cool photo effects in the brilliant sunshine!

     

    This one is my favourite shot of them all.

     

     

     

     

     

    A certain little somebody decided it was time for a nap right in the middle of our ice exploration!
