I've parked my camera and my body. Cold (-22f) and snow, snow and more snow. Spring and fall, is where it's at! No more mid summer/winter PADs for me.
That reminds me ... sorry, folks, night cup is more appealing than doing pp after a long day; will post tomorrow, will have a dram now ...... there's no "e" in a good whisky!
Singles in July has had lower participation because so many folks from the forum are on vacation or other summer activities. Singles in January has worked because it gives folks motivation to get out and shoot as opposed to just sitting in the house. For me, I much prefer the overcast lighting of January to the strong high contrast light of July. July would have flowers, however.

When I clicked on your location, it indicated the temperature as -18F. I'm a bit younger than you, but I'd stay inside as well.We get out to do what is necessary, but right back inside. We are not naturally inside people, but at 69 and 70 with aging issues we do what is practical, but not always a 'barrel of fun'. Cameras are always ready, just not in heavy use.
Beatiful composition, crisp processing!Yesterday's clouds thickened and delivered today. It seemed dark, cold, wet and windy all day. Not as bad as all the other reports, but enough to effect the psyche. I started playing with an indoor image in Analog efex 2, thanks to Briar's great series. I am afraid the storms will be coming in through next Tuesday, but I am hoping for a sun break. View attachment 122870
