Wear Gloves
We're enjoying all the snow accumulated during the blizzard over Christmas, but at the time, it wasn't a good idea to be outside for long. This was captured on my street (with my back to the wind) during Christmas Eve, with gale force icy winds, heavy snow, and drifting snow. A one second exposure made the snow look more like fog. Next time, I'll have to try for a faster shutter and not worry about noise with a high ISO - and wear gloves so I can stay out longer.
We kept our fingers and toes crossed that the electricity wouldn't go out - otherwise, we would have lost heat as well as the lights. We were lucky, which I'm grateful for, but many others were not. The irony is that tomorrow, the temperature is increasing again and it will rain.
