Natural landscapes: enduring the cold
PETAWAWA RIVER, PETAWAWA, ONTARIO, CANADA
Oh, man. It was cold that morning. We’re talking -30 cold. So cold I just didn’t want to take off my gloves long enough to put on darkening filters and go for a long exposure to make the water silky. No, I hurredly set up the tripod, put a polarizing filter on my 18-70-mm. lens, made a few exposures, then walked hurriedly back to the car. All along that return trip, I kept flexing my fingers to try and keep some feeling in them.

Shooting in the cold never gets easy, I’ve only shot at -15 and that was cold enough. I was out for an hour though with no car! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for checking out the photo and for your kind words, Eric. 🙂
