Too Cold for Fishing
It's been really cold ever since we got back from Thanksgiving. It's been too cold for aquatic insects to hatch. Still water and some moving water is frozen and it would be far too miserable to stand in slushy water breaking ice off the fly rod every couple of casts. I didn't know what to do with myself until I remembered I was a photographer. There was nice soft light all day, but it was cold (the thermometer read between 18 and 6 degrees while I was out this afternoon and evening). Anyway, it was nice to be out wandering around a bit.

Stand in slushy water . . . Crazy! That would be pretty extreme.
Good to see you out photographing. I was starting to worry that I ruined you.
I love that you have to "REMIND" yourself that you are a photographer! Thanks for the picture!
I'm happy to see you out photographing, even when right now it's 11:10 pm and you are photohraphing. Crazy kid!
Welcome back Darren!
