Though I do have technologically advanced cameras, I tend to prefer older cameras (all these are second-hand cameras with a 16MP sensor) and use them manually. I am not rejecting technological excellence and sophisticated algorithms. All I am saying is that I have more joy when working manually and that Fuji's old 16MP sensor is really good enough for my purposes. This shot was done with my new (ten year old) Fuji X-Pro1.

This is from last December. But still here is snow everywhere and this morning it was -13C
There are few signs though: you can hear the water on the streams flowing and I've seen a bunch of snowdrops

Thank you for your visit, most appreciated!
Another attempt with this old manual lens. There are some C/A tracks on contours, but the total result is good. (Small white points are by light rain drops, not lens fault)

To be honest, I prefer the Auto setting on my camera. I have taken photo after photo for this challenge and just cannot create what I see in my mind's eye. This is one of the better results using manual.

Those of you who have seen my macros have already observed that I like the 'dreamy' look. That is, feature a little segment of the subject and the rest is just 'color', more or less.
