Bit of a busy day and evening today.
The forecast show has arrived this evening. I shall await developments to see if we get Britain-stopping levels (that our overseas friends would laugh at) of snow overnight.

Turned To Rain

After a few days of light snowy conditions, it was a bit odd to come out of work to rain.

Oh, and it took approximately two hours and eight minutes of being in the building until [redacted].
Such fun.

First working day of the year, and I ended up doing about an hour and a half over. Silly boy.
Despite that, I actually managed to make real food with actual vegetables tonight. Astonishing.

This pair of photos are 3x macro shots, stacks of 62 and 77 frames respectively.

One more after the jump.

Headin' Home

I froze myself nearly solid this afternoon waiting for a murmuration that never occurred.
I can't work out whether it just didn't happen, or happened really early, or I left too soon, but I gave it a good 15 minutes after sunset, having got in position half an hour or so before.
Colour me confused (as usual).

I don't think much to the 1.4x extender on this lens with the R5. Oddly enough, I think this is the first time I've used the combination, but it's pretty fuzzy, even stopped well down and with a respectably fast shutter speed. Some more investigation may be required as I don't recall it being this bad in the past.

I don't mind this shot though.

Howl At The Moon

I didn't get out earlier to get a nice shot of the moon with something in front of it because I was busy working on something, but I did get what I think is a fairly decent shot of the moon in splendid isolation later on.
I used the M6 here for the "free" teleconversion effect of the smaller sensor, which doesn't reduce the light like an optical teleconverter does.

First Snow!
I had a rather pleasant walk this afternoon, and I didn't even fall over. How fortuitous.
