Stroll Seen while strolling...walking and wandering outside

Sony A7 II, Leica Elmar-M 50mm f/2.8 at f/8, ISO 100 (and yess, there's probably a smidgen of a smudge on the sensor ...):

... The camera caught some rain today, and I was a bit wary about switching it off because I had no real chance of drying off the lens barrel first - but it seems to have had no ill effects. I hope I wasn't just lucky there.

Time to start carrying a small microfibre towel wherever you go. I have one permanently in the car, and another in my bag... just in case.

Seen while out for a walk this morning. Got caught out with the wrong camera settings and no time to reset them.

Some more from the other side of the road

Today, I tried a bit too hard - took two of my medium format film cameras out into the dripping (melting) forest only to discover that one had lost power (of course, the one that needed its batteries to work) and that the other wasn't fit to catch any water either, so they stayed in the bag for most of the time. Shooting somehow didn't work well for me today; I blew a couple of perfectly obtainable frames and only noticed it when I got home. Sometimes, you can try too hard ... Anyway, I'm reasonably happy with these two:

Out on a walk with my dog this afternoon. Two Spruce trees: Blue Spruce and Norway Spruce.

Two more from the Sony A7 II:

Yesterday: Winter's really making a mark now (but light levels were low again). This was with the Samyang 35mm again.

Today, even colder, windy - and temperatures are dropping fast! Using an interesting lens arrangement here: Voigtländer 21mm f/4 (a tiny pancake type lens) mounted via the Voigtländer Close Up VM (=M mount) to Sony E adapter.

A few days ago I posted these daffodils in post #1770. This is them again after 6" of snow last night

Lots of powdery snow and strong winds last night, so there are some good drifts around the village this morning.

We had a lot of snow on Wednesday and strong winds yesterday and this morning but the direction of the wind has meant that we don't have any drifts in the village. Lots of main roads blocked out in the open though.
These are from Wednesday afternoon. A rare bit of sunshine

And then the snow returned

A few from yesterday - the village moat was well frozen

And the churchyard
