It was snowing lightly today, the forecast was for one to three inches, but only about half and inch came down so far. It is supposed to get windy later so I don't know if it will get cold enough for the snow to stick to the ground much.
It did snow just enough to make disc golf hard to do. I couldn't finish doing 9 holes because my fingers were frozen from picking up the snowy discs.
Here's a picture so you can see what I mean. (It has been slightly embellished by Photoshop Express for dramatic effect)
Mostly today I was out walking around and spent some time making a larger loop around the hood in my hoodie. I got my first over 10,000 step day - a personal best as far as tracking steps is concerned.
Here's some snow covered heathers that I saw today:
In my garden I noticed the first shoots of flowers were starting to come up. The fancy imported flowers I got from China did not flower in time and have died back. I hope they will come up again soon when the weather warms up some more.
Oh yeah I know how you feel. I been using thin leather gloves. Not much protection from the cold, but they do allow me to still use my camera.
Nice shots, my friend!
They do make special thin gloves for disc golfing. Maybe I might try them out but I've heard people don't typically like them much.
I've been getting lazy and just posting my photos off my phone and not bothering adding any fancy way of looking at a higher resolution photo. I have noticed that right clicking on the photo doesn't bring down a larger view of the photo any more on Steemit either. I'm not sure if people enjoyed looking at a larger resolution version or not - if your just viewing posts on your phone maybe you don't need that. Good enough for now I suppose; thanks for the feedback!
Well it is funny I guess I am just old skool coz I still do 90% on my PC. I do love my phone, but I have to admit the larger the screen for me, the better! Because I also post content on YouTube they are always sharing info and they stated over 50% of all vids now are watched on phones! I suppose then that is probably close to how it is here as well.
wow really amazing photography and great experience . this is great article
thanks @lightsplasher
Have a nice day

@lightsplasher, First of all congratulations to achieve your personal best count. And yes, it's reflecting frozen and it looks beautiful but too much cold is not a joke aspect. Stay blessed and keep up.
Thank you. Back before step counting with electronic devices I used to ride many miles on my mountain or road bike and jogged. I bet my step count was a lot higher on a typical day back then. My knee prevents me from running now and I've slowed down a lot.
The snow is really coming down now, it looks like at least a couple of inches.
Welcome and have a blessed time ahead.
