Just the other day…it snowed! Our first of the season. With no wind, early morning was a fairyland.
These crabapple trees immediately caught my eye in a nearby park, where I happily spent 1½ hours taking photographs just after sunrise.
I’m learning to work with my gear in cold weather, to stay comfortable but also have the freedom to move:
- Stow pack in the trunk of the car, but choose only 1 lens for the camera to carry along with the tripod. Stash cable release somewhere handy.
- Handwarmers activated in outside pockets, but wear only silk gloves.
- Inside pockets hold an extra battery and memory card, along with the closeup lens and/or polarizer, car keys, cell phone, memo pad, pencil, and business cards.
- Water bottle stays in car; but maybe next time I’ll take a thermos of hot tea instead. 🙂
