Icy Spell

The icy spell across the UK has brought the photographers in us all out - news programmes have been inundated  with snowy clad landscapes.  Actually glad not to have any weddings in January - far too cold!

So have taken opportunity to capture  nature's frozen gems.  Frozen water droplets and freeze-dried roses adding a splash of colour, the snow-covered beach and  the frozen lake in Ashton Park in West Kirby  have all been digitally recorded.  Its such a rare occurrence for the Wirral to have such a blanket of snow that even with icy paths had to wrap up well and get out with the camera.   I found that the cannon G9 on macro mode was more adept at getting detail shots than the D90 with the tamron 18-50mm lens. Hope you get some great winter shots too and that you share them.
