the winters here tend not to be very cold

but this winter has been warmer than usual, with barely any hard frost -- as these apples prove since they're still bright yellow on the tree in the middle of january.

thank you! i have gotten a lot better since i got the digicam because i can now shoot shoot shoot, without worrying how expensive it is to develop film. not only can i shoot at different exposures if i am not sure what will work best, but it also helps to have 5 different shots of the same scene from slightly different angles because then i can pick the best later when i finally see them full-size, or crop the most interesting bits. all that practice has improved my overall composition a lot, i now often see good pictures of random little stuffthat i wouldn't have noticed some years ago, before i even look through the viewfinder.

i'm happy people are enjoying these. :)
