It feels like Winter

Actually, I am not sure if my title is apt today, as I haven't been out much today other than a quick run well drive to the supermarket, but it was pretty cool and damp out there today, but there was still plenty of snow around at that time, looking out the window now a lot was melted away with the rain, but still a good coating of a few inches on the grassy areas.

I was asked to submit some photos for consideration for the Winter Issue of the City Magazine, so was looking through some of my winter shots and thought I would share a couple in a post this evening.

This is a shot from a previous winter looking towards out city hall over a little park and statue, even in winter and the cold iit is such a beautiful area.

And this is a sht on the other side of the city hall from the first shot, looking over the Duck pond with the church in the background.

In case your wondering yes those footprints in the snow were mine, I would have done better to head to this spot and get this shot before I walked over the snow, but it only when I got to this spot that I wish I had done that.

Seeing this shot when I was looking through my archives also reminded me why I am being sensible and staying indoors and following Doctors orders, I know myself well enough and I know if I had gone to this spot today to get shots I would have walked all over the spot including over the snow to get to good angles and definitely not be taking it easy,

and infact on the day of this shot, after taking this shot I went to walk down the slope to get another angle and slipped and slid down the bank and into the little river, dislocating my knee, so remembering that motivated me to stay sensible at home nice and warm.
