Wow, you're skating already. This is one envious reply (and congratulations) from the Netherlands (where we only had two degrees Celsius freezing for one night). And this is a lovely picture.

What a picture Matt! I have the lake blades and also some no_longer_used clap skates from the Lake Placid days. Wear a size 9 by chance?

Thanks but no, I'm a 10. Just got some new skates and the new ones are really comfortable.

K-3 and Sigma 8-16, DA 18-135 and DA 55-300 PLM

Walking to portage trail into Pinetree Lake in Algonquin Park. A nice easy 4 km stroll.

Heading out.

Eating snow.

Taking in the scene.

Dwarfed by the Huge Hemolocks

Pinetree Lake

Rocks, dead leaves moss and lichen

Just as we were getting near the end... snow

Is that Sicily or Corsica?

It is indeed in the Mediterranean area, but the island of Crete.

A lovely shot, the 18-135 lens was made for this activity.

Thank you - yes, this is why the 18-135 is my main walk around lens.

Yes, that's the one.

The 18-135's versatility paid off here, though I did wish I had had brought along something faster, but that would have meant at least a 2 lens kit, and fiddling with lens changes in between and missing some shots then... A second camera would do the trick as well, but nothing beats the neat little package of one camera with the 18-135 for compactness and quality.
