Welcome to '5 in 5' where on the 5th of
each month I post 5 photos that I have
taken in 5 minutes.
I arranged to meet a friend for a walk a few days after Christmas and we planned well, as it was a crisp frosty morning with clear blue sky. Perfect for a leisurely stroll and chat.... and for taking photos of course!
As always I took far more than needed or intended but for the photo challenge I was drawn to an area that was heavily covered in frost. I liked the textures and the different patterns that the ice crystals made, although I was disappointed that the images are not as sharp as I hoped for.
I'm not sure if that was due to me or my camera, I know a bad workman blames his tools but I often think my photos are not as
sharp as they used to be. I bought my camera in 2008, it has taken x1000's of photos and it goes in my bag everywhere with me! I am planning a trip to the Shetland Islands in April and I know my camera will be well used, I don't want to be disappointed so
perhaps it is time to think of changing it? Then starts the problem of what kind of camera do I buy? Anyway.... I digress and I need to get back to my photos, so here they are, including one of my friend writing on a seat.
