Icy Bug’s Eye View

Today I awoke to a sprinkling of snow and/or hail. The weather has been decidedly wintry lately, though we haven’t had a good snowfall, just a sprinkling here and there. The pond is frozen over and it’s very chilly. I went out to have a look and see what I could see (as I do!) and decided to get down low and look at all the ice in the grass. Luckily for me we have a little tiny tripod type thing which you can screw into the bottom of the camera, plus my camera has a flip screen and live view … I say luckily as the alternative would have been to lie on my belly in the icy grass to get these shots! I also had a low tech solution of a plastic bag to kneel on and avoid getting soggy jeans! My leg is now more sore than usual, but never mind, it was worth it 🙂
