Oh...I could force myself to get out and shoot. The wildlife would then be smarter than I.

Stop your griping! It got all the way down to 54 here, last night. I had to break out the spare blankie.

At 54° I'd be sleeping in the raw!

I'm such a wimp. It will be in the forties this weekend so I doubt I will get out either.

xris · February 8, 2007

20 degrees F here. And LOTS o' room on the beach!

Prezwoodz · February 9, 2007

Those temperatures look desirable. Whats wrong with a little wind chill ?

Hi Ric.
Try to shoot something indoors !

Light a candle - just an example that came to my mind - fill a glass of water/wine, put the candle at the back of the glass and make experiments.

As a matter of fact, I was in the restaurant on the other day and I was watching that light. All came to my mind when I saw it and was thinking about Nikolai assignments.

Regards.

I had a bit of cabin feaver going last weekend. We had a high of 8 deg F on Sunday in southwestern Indiana, but I had to go out. I went to Cataract Lake to photograph the tailwater of the dam. The photos are here: http://www.purplepug.com/gallery/2435935/1/127736902 if you are interested. Amazingly cold, but it was worth the adventure.

The adventure is the best part next to a few good shots. Nice!

Rhuarc · February 10, 2007

My hometown in Maryland hit -11F this past week, wind chills hitting 30 below. That's what I call bitter!!

Yep...relatively nice today.

It has been a struggle just to keep the sliding patio door working....so the dog can get out! I gotta keep the humidity up or I'll suffer.

So it's up to near the state line to visit the grandkids today.:ivar

Wah, Wah, Wah.
Try winter in Minnesota. That's 8 months you'll never forget.

I could post a few shots from the cold days, you know -17 in the morning,
-10 for a high, wind chills of -45. But I won't. (but I could)

So buck up and get out there.

We hit a low of 65f last night. I actually got under my rug.

Heck NO!!! That's why thousands of us Illini have moved down to Florida to cheer on Illinois and Da Bears. Big gathering at local bars. Most of us like shooting in shorts and a T-shirt.

It's the crazy ones that stick around in the winter. The ones that don't buy property down here.....we call "Snow Birds". They flock here in great numbers in the winter months.

Keep warm Ric.

You know the camera won't function, so might as well stay indoors, right?
