I've lived in a cold climate my entire life, and, initially, winter is truly exciting. It provides the much-needed festive break after dreary and dark November with Christmas holidays, not to mention outdoor sports and fun when the weather is mild enough. By the end of January, however, I already yearn for seasons to fast-forward, and for spring to arrive as soon as possible. No more layers, no more ice! And yet, I will miss meager—in terms of color—icy abstractions decorating rooftops and blinding passers-by with their brilliance.

Shooting Shooting
Blowing snow, wind, ice, and freezing temps? No problem! A shooting range is not a bad place for some indoor photography with a macro lens--after a bit of self-defense practice, of course.
