Same old subjects - but with falling snow
Lens: A-400 Camera: K-3 Photo Location: My back yard 
Posted By: normhead, 11-17-2014, 11:40 AM

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas...
K-3 - A-400
ISO 400 - ƒ5.6 - Shutter set by Aperture Priority











8 days ago, a completely different look.

Nope eyballs are good. We just got back from Costa Rica 11 days (not really a vacation although we did manage 4 days off and traveled a bit) - other than that not much we left here it was +10 coldest Costa Rica got was maybe +23 and then and came back to -23 with windchill this morning and snow - just be settling in for the winter. If we're lucky we'll make a few trips to the mountains this winter and that will be about it. I have not been on the forums much but have a few hundred shots from a warm place now so I imagine I will post a few here and there (got one sunset up already) .....

Snow is a welcome addition to these scenes. The muted palette suits the blue jay really well. I'm hoping for a couple of more weeks of autumn colour for my backdrops though.
