The Weekly Collegial Show Your Photos Starting 20 January 2025 Any Brand

This is the weekly Collegial Show Your Photos Any Brand thread where we invite you to show your own pictures. It is collegial in that it is a pleasant and friendly place among photographers to share.

I will begin this thread each Monday (Pacific Standard Time) to give each of you all the chance to share your weekend photos with us, for those that follow a regular work week schedule and choose to do it that way. But the pictures can be taken at any time with any camera, including your cell phone. It's open to all skill levels from beginners to advanced. The images posted can be anything from casual snaps to extraordinary. I'll be sure to comment to each of your photos, if you choose to share. Replies from others are encouraged also.

The intent of this thread to mainly to just show photos in a relaxed way and to generate replies or comments about them. Generally I'm not planning to critique any image unless asked. But I or we may ask things about a photo that may develop into a discussion, always being friendly and helpful. It has been a request that I mention this and from what I've learned from past experience: Can you ask a member first if they would mind you editing their photos?

Remember it's all about the enjoyment of taking pictures regardless of what we have. We can learn from each. Please share any tips or techniques too. A narrative sometimes also helps. Thanks everyone for your participation.

Subject: Skating Beneath A Tent

Last week David had showed some skaters. Here's some of my own pictures of skaters. They were skating beneath a temporary tent. The tent is there to protect the ice from melting and to ensure the people don't get wet from the rain. This skating is something that happens for about a month around the Christmas holidays.

Because there was artificial colored lighting, not all the pictures came out as good as I would have liked. But it's the best I could do with the conditions given.

Nice to see that they all are having fun on the Ice rink 😀

We didn't see the sun this weekend, it was a foggy and colder weekend. Temperature just below zero (Celcius) so the fog did turn in to frost.
We didn't have rain so we did as usual enjoy a few hours outside.

Photobygms,

Thanks. I wanted to show them having fun. 😀

Photobygms,

I really appreciate seeing your photos of the cold weather, with all the fog and frost. You captured some scenes that we rarely see.

For now that will be the last with that kind of weather. The weather is changing the forecast is warmer with rain.....

We have had quite unusual dry and sunny weather recently. Normally we would be getting a lot of rain in January. This is what I saw yesterday in late afternoon. I was looking for Wood Ducks but this time I did not see any.

Thanks Alan. 😀

Nice to see the sun again @Digirame 😎
