As there's not much chance of getting out with the camera at the mo I've been doing a re-edit of my visit to Amsterdam in the very cold February of 2012.
It's the only time I've seen the canals properly frozen.
I thought B/W wouid work well.

My lovely, lovely rangmyon (Korean cold noodles), packed in ice (yes, that's shaved ice), and snipped with scissors. Tastes like rubber, but hey, all buckwheat noodles taste that way. And I got my slice of Korean pear! That's at 12 o'clock. Blogged shimmertje.livejournal.com

i'm a big fat wiener when it comes to cold weather. like a cat in water ~ don't like it!
i get to look like this all week... yippeeee.
but i'm off tomorrow, and other than running some errands - i plan on staying in.
Due to insulation we had blown in the attic last year, we had to install CFL's in the ceiling spotlights to reduce the temperature. I'm not much a fan of CFL's, as they are still not a very good bulb (slow warm up, far less than advertised life, expensive, and questionable carbon footprint reduction as a result of much higher manufacturing effort and said short lifespans). They are useful in some situations where they'll deliver good results, but they are not a universal solution, IMHO- still waiting for LED lights to come down in price for that.
These spotlights take about 2 minutes to come to full brightness- I noticed that when I first turn them on, the end of the spiral internal bulb is not yet glowing, so thought it would make an interesting picture.
Believe it or not, I DON'T have too much time on my hands! I have a full-time job that bores the life out of me so I have to be as creative as I can be when I'm home or I feel like I'm going to shrivel up and die!!!! Am I too dramatic? Perhaps.
I have a lot of old jagged East TN rocks to work with so I smoothed this one out and made a little thatch roof with Apoxie Sculpt. The chimney is wood-filler and the paints are craft acrylics.
This is a really fun, EASY project that would be good for kids. Plus, it makes a really cute piece of garden art when it is finished! I suggest everyone try this project!
Map at the Cold Harbor NPS visitor center, from the famous 1864 campaign, last battle in Grant’s Overland campaign; from here he will move quickly south across the James River to try and seize Petersburg; managed to surprise Lee, outflanking him. Point of this photo and similar ones is that this ground had already been extensively fought over in 1862 during the Seven Days; the armies returned to the area in late winter, spring, and early summer of 1864.

When skiing many years ago our Austrian ski instructor commented that my friend had a 'dangerous nose' ... in other words close to frostbite. It was -25 and everything on our faces were frozen with a layer of ice. Happy days!
