Wind chill -6

Hi all, it was a cold day down on the river. The wind was not strong but it was really cold, ripped right through you. The old temp was around 1 to -2 plus a wind chill of -4.2. Almost too cold to hold the camera.

Well, I braved it but my face and hands froze, I managed 30 minutes before I chickened out and went back to the car. In the car park it felt like summer, you know that season we had around June. anyway here is what I got this afternoon. BTW I am still thawing out.

Sheltered from the wind

Well that is the lot for today, I need somewhere warmer for tomorrow 

Thanks for looking

  1. Nice pictures there Trev, well worth going out and freezing.

    I worked this morning and stayed in this afternoon. Would have likes to get the telescope out this evening but I think I will stay in the warm.
