Long and Cold

Let me start by saying, some of my favorite pictures have been taken in the winter. Snow and ice do crazy things and make neat shapes and create a lot of contrast.

Unfortunately,  I’ve gotten to the the point where I really don’t want to take another photo of a winter landscape, or a pretty ice formation, or a duck chilling on a frozen whatever, while I’m freezing my butt off and my fingers are going numb.

I want some colors other than blue, brown, black, and white.

I want Spring! Please hurry up, Spring.

Anyway, I’m thinking of hitting up Heckrodt Wetland Preserve this weekend.  I’d prefer to go there in the Summer, but hey, it’s not.  At the very least it’ll be a nice walk.  I also need more practice with the 70-300mm, so it’s a good excuse.
