Silhouettes

Delta Lake State Park

I picked up a used lens the other day. I enjoyed exploring with my 50mm and wanted a lens that was a little wider. I found the retro-themed Nikon Z 28mm online and decided to give it a try. I must confess I have been looking at the Nikon Z f camera and the 28mm would pair nicely with it.

After a brief snow “storm” (not really) on Monday the weather turned around yesterday and reached into the mid 50’s. The sun was out and although it was a little windy I needed to go for a walk after work. Delta Lake was my destination of choice to stretch my legs and try out the new to me lens.

Snow Moon

Full Moon
Delta Lake State Park

Dumb idea!

But I want to photograph the full moon.

It’s cold!

I’ll be quick.

It’s really cold!

There is no wind, I’ll be fine.

I was fine for about five minutes. Then I was cold! My fingers were cold. They didn’t want to work the controls on the camera. I don’t think my camera was happy with me either. It is only supposed to be used above freezing. I captured a few images and made a quick walk back to the car.

It was a dumb idea…
