<p>Hello Nikonistas, and a good Wednesday to everyone. We're just days away from spring, right? Hilarious.<br /><br />I've been thinking about committing to photographing only frozen things, now. Forever. I've forgotten there was ever anything else.<br /><br />On the other hand, I've discovered that a single storm, like Monday's, can deposit an easy dozen varieties of ice within an hour. Below is the classic clinging-rock-hard-pebbly type. Super! Yay. It was 5F this morning, so I could take my time - it wasn't going anywhere.<br /><br />Please, somebody, show something tropical. I'll even settle for some hot, empty desert. Share!<br>

<p>We managed to survive the ice fairly well here in Memphis. Certainly better than our neighbors a few miles to the west in Arkansas where interstates turned into parking lots. </p>

<p>I'm not a big fan of cold weather in general, especially snow and ice. My dogs, however, don't seem to mind it a bit. </p>

<p>Matt I'm with you on this winter, ice, snow, cold thing. Like the movie "Ground Hog Day". It won't go away Lol.<br>

Any way my photo today isn't tropical but at least sunny and warm in a very small town in NW Pennsylvania, Venango.<br>

This is the old hardware store that has been closed for years and I thought the longs shadows made it look even more interesting. This shot is from back in 2009.</p>

<p>Reaching into the archives to play with some images from the desert and found this agave. (Nikon D80 and most likely a vivitar series 1 105mm macro)<br>

<p>Cory, I recognize the behavior, my boxers used to do the same thing in the snow when I still had two. It's like the snow causes some extra excitement. Love it.<br>

Mine is the moon at sunset, just after I finished shoveling out the driveway. Where's spring?!</p><div>00cQfd-545955984.jpg.3960ea709b47d1acb056544a3e428690.jpg</div>
