It’s slightly milder – but still cold – and the sun has disappeared completely. It’s still icy at Leighton Moss: fewer ducks than usual on the iced-over ponds, but great for spotting glass “snakes” beside the path. I was on a morning wildlife photography course, which included wandering around with a camera. I didn’t learn anything new, but I was motivated to look and frame with care. It was too cold to fiddle about with camera settings: I just used a long lens, a high ISO and a wide aperture and pressed the button.
I really like the ice photos!
