Finally ventured out in the cold

[Toot]

It has been cold and foggy for quite awhile. I finally ventured out in it. The sun has been trying to come out in the late afternoon and melts the frozen fog (pogonip) then starts all over the next day.

The last picture (which is kind of suggestive) was challenging to take. I have been trying to practice my close-up shots. I have ice cycles off the back of my house that have grown down to eye level. It was quite entertaining to get close to these. The problem was depth perception and standing on ice. Trying to focus on them and getting a little to close, that I would slip and knock them down. So I would just go to the next one. By the time I was done - well, I don't have too many left now.
