The "Bomb Cyclone", as they call it, was another memorable event. It was so cold that the snow was not heavy and wet. The winds blew it into drifts, so staying off the roads for a day was the way to go.

I finally put my hands on xf16mmf1.4 r wr. This is one of the first pictures I took with it. I decided I'll be shooting mainly with this lens for some time so I can be sure if I want to keep it or not since it's quite expensive. The first thought is that it's staying with me but we'll see how things go in practice :)

11.13.2015: This is some of the outerwear that I use in the winter. The fuzzy stuff comes out when it's not raining but cold. I use the hand/arm warmers all the time. And like using a colorful scarf to offset my mostly black wardrobe. And, of course, it's boot weather so I'm happily wearing those now. I like the colder weather but don't like feeling cold. Bundling up is the best!

 

Galaxy s5

I found this little fence in a field, I am not exactly sure why there are horse shoes attached to it. The cold weather has been making it really hard to shoot outside, my fingers go numb after about 5 mins. i need to acquire a pair of gloves soon.

Porter, Maine.

 

It was just 32.F this morning when I went down to the old Porter Dam / waterfall off Rt-160 in Porter, there was a lot of ice formations but they were hard to get to because the water was running high making access hard.

Getting ready to roll the camera rig for the Hallmark Movie of the Week THEN AGAIN.

Goulburn in southern NSW rarely sees snow, but this year there were three falls. This final one happened in mid September, and was not predicted. These images were taken almost three hours after the snow stopped falling, and had already lost it's intensity on the ground.

The arctic weather from Sibiria had the outside temperature in central Europe drop down to below -20° Celsius during the night. My own digital thermometer at the window showed a mimimum-record of -15.3° during 26th/27th January 2010.

 

Wetterstation am Kulturgut Marzahn (Tel. 50016207):

Das besondere an diesem Winter war, daß die Schneefalldauer so lang war. Dieses Wetterphänomen hat es seit 30 Jahren nicht gegeben. Der Winter war zudem arm an Sonnenschein und es kam zwischendurch kaum zu nachhaltigem Tauwetter.

Die Schneedecke hielt in Marzahn vom 30. Dezember 2009 bis zum 27. Februar 2010. Die höchste Schneedecke wurde am 12. Februar mit 29 Zentimetern gemessen. Die tiefste Temperatur wurde am 26. Januar mit Minus 17,1 Grad Celsius abgelesen. Berliner Woche Seite 2, Lokalausgabe Marzahn, Kalenderwoche 13, Mi. 31.März 2010 21.Jahrgang

In Smartphone Era, Point-and-Shoots Stay Home NewYorkTimes

The point-and-shoot camera, which has been a part of American households since 1900, when George Eastman introduced the Kodak Brownie, is endangered. Like other single-use devices — the answering machine, the desktop calculator, the Rolodex — it is being shoved aside by a multipurpose device: the smartphone and its camera, which takes better snapshots with each new model.

... “The compact camera market is pretty stagnant,” said Christopher Chute, an analyst at the market researcher IDC. “The ubiquity of a 5- or 10-megapixel camera phone in your pocket is hard to overcome.”

Downtown Detroit 2008.

It looks mighty chilly, wherever they are.

My company has a policy of every employee gets a holiday when it snows...how great is that? I'm the only employee though, and this policy was born a few years ago after I left a customer's house when a snow commenced and it took me 2 hours to drive about 10 miles home due to the panic stricken drivers crapping up the road. So now I leave all that chaos to them and I slip out somewhere more remote after the wrecks and abandoned vehicles are corralled.

 

I rarely go up here to the star but started picture taking play-time here this morning, a rather treacherous icy ride up the drive in my 2WD car but at least it kept everyone else away so I had the platform all to myself at sunrise. The star is cut off at midnight and all of the photos I have seen were illuminated, I sort of like it better off. Thought it looked cool with the sunrise glow in the background, this is but a single image with little done more than clarity and some vibrance. The orange glow is painting from the nearby tower's flashing light.

 

Took lots of snow pics today so will post them later.

I want to thank all my flickr friends for your kindness this year, and especially to my "sisters" for your support, encouragement and affection. xo
