It's 21F right now in Bisbee and I feel as one with you folks. Joe, did you shoot these painfully sharp images with your XPro1? My house below.

these last 3 were with flash...just playing around bit.
is that snow recent ted?
 
The house photograph is from two weeks ago. Still have some snow in back yard (North side). Going down to 14F tonight.
 
looks like fun to me, joe.
i saw a fellow shooting some high school wrestling with some canon L-glass today. shade was on backwards, undeployed, of course ...
 
I like my Winter festival's in much warmer climates!!!! Vancouver is going through a cold spell (almost -1C today at noon). Hate it - particularly with some wind. Bright sky though - which is a bit of a novelty at the moment.
Nice stuff, Joe - those Fuji lenses are good, really good.
 
Looks like a fun way to spend the day, joe!
Not sure what our winter celebration will be like this year; the lake is still not frozen enough to be on.
Usualy, there is golfing on the ice and the "traditional" cast iron skillet pan toss.
Got a few weeks for the weather to get good, can't wait to be able to get to town across the lake (1.5 miles) instead of around the lake(9 miles).
