Default A Winter Wonderland

I've been pretty active with the camera over the last few weeks - although i'm getting pretty sick of the weather now if I'm honest!

I thought i'd share them with you ...





More pics on my Flickr page - A Winter Wonderland - a set on Flickr

Cheers

Great pictures!

I too am not a fan of winter/cold weather.

Two questions I have for you are:

- What tires are you running?
- What camera are you using for these pictures?

Thanks

Hi Jeff

I'm running summer tyres as we don't tend to get this weather for too long. Dunlop SP600's.

I've got a Nikon D90 and that's what all these shots were taken with.

Cheers,

Al

Al,

Thanks for the response.

Oh you are running summer tires.. wow here during winter you wouldn't be able to do that. I want to move to a place where it's ALWAYS warm and their is only 1 season! lol

Nice camera! When it warms up I am going to mess around with my DSLR (Nikon D3000)

-Jeff

PS: Thanks for the flickr link! Your STi is my background on my PC even tho I am not a fan of the newer Subaru style.

It's running AST Coilovers mate - perhaps you're Prodrive springs make it just as low? I quite like that it's not too low if you know what I mean.

Looks cool!

If I ever come back to Scoobies it will be a hatch like this, or a Litchfield hatch, they are growing on me as well.
