372 - The First Snow

Last Saturday I was swimming. OK, the water temperature was far from optimal, to be honest it was damn cold, but it was a warm, sunny day and I was swimming in the lake, only for two minutes, but still swimming was … cool.

Only a week ago. Now, this morning we had snow. Not much, on first sight you could have taken it for frozen dew, but in was definitely snow. When I went out to take some images, the sun suddenly came up over the fog. I shot this image 50 meters from our house, using the Nikon 18-200 at 18mm, f13 and 1/50s.

The Song of the Day is “First Snow In Kokomo” from Aretha Franklin’s 1971 masterpiece “Young, Gifted and Black”. Hear the Song on YouTube.
