Take some of this…
… and add some of this, well-chilled.
Stand back…
Then grab your camera, and start out on your belly on your living room floor with the door to the side deck open, and marvel over “Old Lilac Tree, Revisited.”
Gasp.
Run outside in your slippers and sweatshirt. Open your eyes. And start shooting.
Realize you are now standing on top of the snow plow pile in your slippers and sweatshirt. No gloves. No hat.
You can no longer feel the fingers in your left hand.
RUN!! Back into the house. Get real boots, hat, and Michelin-man fleecy on. RUN! Back out to shoot on the other side of the snow pile.
Still no gloves.
Understand there is more to life than gloves. And feeling in your fingers.
Gasp again.
Almost pass out from holding your breath. Thank God for beauty and your D90.
Resume breathing.
Visit next-door neighbor’s pond.
Re-freak.
