This is my contribution to the Friendly Friday Photo Challenge: Whilst Walking prompt.
Taken a few days ago on a walk around the neighborhood. Since then the temperature climbed 15 degrees Celsius and all the snow disappeared.
This is my first contribution to a new weekly photo challenge, Cee’s Midweek Madness Challenge. The prompt this week is Pick a Topic from my Photo.
I went with lines. Partly due to getting snow this week after a weekend wind storm brought lots of branches down. So although this photo was taken 11 months ago I could recreate it if we got some sun.
This is my contribution to Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge: White or cream colours.
We got up to an inch or so of snow yesterday morning so I had my white. When I went for a walk I noticed the snow stuck to the trunk of a Paper Birch tree. That was my, sort of, cream.
This is my contribution to the Cosmic Photo Challenge: The First Breath of Winter prompt.
The first breath of winter this year was last Monday morning when I had to scrape frozen wet snow off the car windows. I didn’t get any photos of that so decided to go back to 2019 and 2018.
Autumn leaves in early snow on the 9th November 2019

Throwback Thursday travels back to southern Cheshire and an autumn in the early 1990s.
An early snowfall had partially covered the landscape with the autumn leaves of the Silver Birch trees standing out against the snow.
This is my contribution to the Friendly Friday Challenge: Splendour in the Grass prompt.
I had a couple of ideas for the challenge and decided to keep it simple and local with two very different photos of grass taken a few yards apart on my walks around the neighborhood.
This is my contribution to the A Photo a Week Challenge: Nostalgic prompt.
It took me a while to come up with a theme for the challenge. Then I thought about my ‘getting back to basics’ project and I had my theme.
A few years ago I put together a kit of manual focus prime lenses to shoot digital the same way I used to shoot film in the 1970s and early 80s. It was a way of getting back to the basics of photography.
Then an accident last year left me with restricted movement in the right shoulder and a weaker right arm and I slimmed the kit down further to three small, manual focus primes and a small mirrorless camera.
