More snow...

I couldn't help myself, it is really pretty. Even if it brings the UK to a standstill!

I have to admit that the garden in our new(ish) house is amazing. I really want a Narnia lamp to go by the stairs between the trees, wouldn't that be so dreamy in the snow. I'd even leave the house to take a photo of that!

It's been snowing... a lot

If you live in the UK then you already know this and you're probably at the same point as me - the novelty is over ha! However before it wore itself out, I did what any other over excited person does when it snows and... took photos out of our window. Yup, I'm a wimp and wet and cold together is my least favourite thing, which includes snow. So out of the window it is!

I  took these photos with my new to me Minolta Dynax 300si which I bought before Christmas with a few other camera bodies that I still need to try out. I've really enjoyed using my Canon EOS 750 (as I'm sure some might have noticed) so I thought I would try out similar cameras and see how I find those. I was a little worried about the lens I bought for this camera as it seemed really dark to look through, but the results look completely fine. PHEW! I think I'll definitely take this camera out again now I know it and the lens work.

Colourful York

One of the things I love about my Yashica Samurai is the zoom, the carousel photo was taken from over the road but you wouldn't be able to tell as I zoomed in!

I also felt super awkward taking the last photo in case the woman behind the flowers saw me (she didn't phew) but look at how lovely the colours of the pansies are! Worth it.

Lovely Ladies

Anyone else a sucker for a lovely statue? Just me?

Funny story about that second photo - I really wanted a photo of the couple on the bench framed by the wooden supports, but they were really watching me and I really hate that when I'm taking photos, anyone else feel like that with people watching, just super uncomfortable? So instead I framed them next to the statue and you know what, I think I prefer it with the statue in. Statue bottom and all...
