A very cold afternoon at The Point, Portsmouth, England.Too cold for a beer so I went to The Canteen by the Round Tower and enjoyed a very good caffe latte and some cake instead of going to the Still & West pub which is pictured.HSS.
As safely as I could, I slip-slided along the property to capture some shots before it melted. I took my first shots using auto focus but when I came inside to review them I felt the camera was having trouble determining the focus point due to the ice coating. So I put my coat back on and took some more shots in manual focus. AND, in reviewing the camera's manual I learned that on my camera's rear-facing live view screen I can enlarge the view to see even better detail. But I didn't know that when I took this shot. Sorry.

The majestic but forgotten/derelict building in the background is the old General Office for Shotton Steelworks.
Yes, minus -35 F freezing cold that everything was coated with white snow dust, and icicles drooping from branches and roofs at Tianzi Mountain Reserve in Zhangjiajie, China.

Mother nature has given a big and cold surprise as every corner is filled with snow. Near the small village of Kurkimäki, a Fenniarail's timber train has started its journey to Immola, as the loud sound of class Dr18 diesel locomotive brings something else to the freezing morning.

A cold friday evening in central Gothenburg. The reflections in the water comes from the surrounding streets and the bridge in the background. Everything from cars, lit up walls, windows and street lights helped me created this cool background when shooting at f/1.4!

It was dark at 5:30am, the path to the top was muddy and slippery due to raining these days. 0C degree, it was freezing cold even with winter jacket on. The sky was full of stars, my hands could almost reach them. When my eyes gradually adapted to the dark, the stars were even brighter. The beautiful Moraine Lake was looming in the mist from the blue hour to red with sunrise light… The most beautiful 2~3 hours. 😉
There were not so many parking spots left at 5:15am. But luckily got in. Went here again one week later at 4:50am, planned to take sunrise photo at Moraine Lake, then hike to the Larch Valley. But parking lot was full. If the lots were full, you would not be allowed in… But the staff started to work at 5am, so many cars parked the 13 km road to Moraine Lake (roadside)… It was the peak time for Larch Valley, which is located up above Moraine Lake in the hamlet of Lake Louise, the trailhead of this hike begins at this very busy, very popular Moraine Lake parking lot… If you want to capture sunrise in the early morning, better arriving before 5am to guarantee a parking spot. Otherwise, you may have to go somewhere else…😊
