This morning’s post was one filled with me whinging about the frost and the cold. Soon after I decided to go out and take a few pictures. I am so very glad that I did – the frost was everywhere – even on the leaves and branches of the trees around the house. I’ve only seen a few frosts like the one this morning where it reached that high.
Thankfully my trusty D5000 worked like a beauty in the –7*C morning. My fingers didn’t do so well – by the end of it I couldn’t feel them at all. The IR filter got used as well. The photos are below.

N.B. Whilst I (and many other Australians) think this weather to be really cold, one of the Lecturers that I saw this morning (who lived in Alberta, Canada) said that this isn’t cold, and more like the weather experience in the Northern Hemisphere in Autumn. Bloody Hell!
