Blipfoto and cold weather

A few days ago I had to close down my little local exhibition, my photos have now been replaced by some oil paintings by a local artist.

No sales during the exhibition though it seems there were quite a lot of viewers, maybe the price is too high but there is not much left out of my pricing once you include the cost of making and framing the print, and excluding any time element.

The cold weather continues in the Netherlands, snow on the ground all week which has created some nice photo opportunities.

I have been using these shots on Blipfoto, my daily photo journal. I started this on the first of January so I have now 26 photos on this site, seemed easy to just take a photo every day but it is sometimes really difficult to find both the time, well more the right moment, and the right shot.  The website checks the dates in the photo information from your camera, so you have to take the photo on the correct day.

I want to try and only add good quality images so i build a good looking record of where I went and what I did throughout the year.

So far I have a mix of photos from my Sony camera and my iPhone -  you can see the whole set at..

Some of the photos caused severe freezing of my hands, I cannot quite work the camera with my gloves on, and at one point my hands were so cold I could no longer push the button on the camera.







I also have a few shots which did not make the cut for Blipfoto this week.
