One Fine Winter Day

Since I've been itching to shoot anything this winter, we went to Port Credit on a bright, frigid day to chase the light!

The gazebo on the rocks. 

I shot in JPEG for these photos and edited them all on my iPad using VSCO Cam. The gist of the workflow is: use a USB to lightning adapter to transfer your images, import into VSCO Cam, export and sync with iCloud onto the computer for uploading. 

I shot everything with the little 24mm STM pancake--gotta admit that it focus hunts sometimes, especially in very bright conditions.

The lake was not completely frozen and I suppose the waves kept breaking them up. When the waves roll in it makes a funny sloshing noise. 

Some parts of the lakeshore were frozen pretty nicely. You can safely walk on the really thick areas, as long as you are careful.

I had to lay down like this to get that previous shot. Photocred to Inez. 

I was expecting more frozen branches like this. 

Overall, a productive day for photography! A lot of photographers tend to slow down during the winter months and I totally get it. My fingers were numb after about an hour of shooting. Well, you have to make do with what you got, right?
