Mmm. I found my Tamron 17-50 2.8 a few days ago and it made me go shoot. Pushy little bastard.
Super jealous of feilong's hiking locale! I don't know what I'd do with so much color! :)
lets get weird. First shot is a single exposure, but the following two were both double-exposures done in-camera. Live View double-exposure feels like cheating.

Oh dear that PRS!
Alright! Time for the blizzard shots. My whole camera body was covered in a layer of ice but handled the conditions with no problem. It was awesome.
I decided to try and process these in b&w with an emphasis on keeping them consistent shot to shot. Also my first real attempt...
Snow is here and work is cancelled.
Time to go shoot.
Here's the first shot from my blizzard adventures. I probably shouldn't have been out in it but who cares:)
I really need to learn photoshop for real.
ALSO::: that Adobe Spark page looks GREAT! Nice and cohesive
Phil, I reedited this shot from above... obviously something was wrong with my eyes in the previous version.

I discovered a way to make snow shots really look great. For the first shot i kept the white balance as shot (5500k). For the other two I cranked the WB up to 15k or so. It really brings the snow to the color that I saw in person. I'm not sure how the physics works that makes snow look blue in...
So I think I'm finally gonna pick up the Ricoh GRII. It just feels right. Pocketable with absolutely stellar IQ.
Cheap too in camera terms.
Edit: photography is boring and I hate it.
