@ Ira - My 50mm f/1.4 is a more interesting lens than my 35mm f/2, but the 35mm is a better length for general use on digital. I haven't tried the 35mm on film yet, which is where the 50mm really performs.

Super Tak 35mm f/2 and a 40 year old linear polarizer:

Thanks for the kind words, Dude & Stash.

Porga, how did you get that effect in PP?

HA! HA! And to think that you could had moved further north (a bit colder but less snow). Today the temperature is almost ideal around 2 degrees F, wind 4 mph and cloudy.

And to show how it is:

Great pictures everyone

When I saw the pic I wasn't signed in, so I did not see where you're from. And I thought, ah, that's a swedish neigborhood, but why is the trash cans blue? They should be green.

Lovely shot natestation. Was there a lot of post on the image, or is that just the natural beauty of the Alaskan sky?

Other than tweaking the W/B in PP, and a little selective sharpening, that's pretty much straight out of camera. I used a longer exposure, around 10 seconds, I believe.
