CSRA Snowcross - Lindsay Ontario 01/24

While most people on here head into the gyms for Basketball or Wrestling and any number of WARM events this time of year - I decide to go out and brave the elements! It was -19 C with a wind chill of about -29 C or so. I figured it was Snowmobile racing - so it has to be cold... 6 hours of that 'cold' was enough for me!

Thanks for looking! Let me know what you think.

Side note: I shot all day with my D300 & 70-200 VR. I was amazed at how well the 300 handled the cold! Countless images combined with the temp & VR and i still had atleast 50% battery left after 6-7 hours.









One last one....
