    Nearly bare bodies in the summer are covered with parkas and hoods for this November boatride past leafless trees and empty docks.

    Feeling All Warm and Fuzzy

    Just had to experiment with a few shots before coming up with the right sun/reflection balance. Of course one is not going to look through a reflex camera to do this.
