The Snow Must Go On!

Photo Information

My home town of Bo'ness in last weeks snow. This is looking from the war memorial down the Wynd and out over the River Forth towards Fife. Just after i set up, a car was travelling down hill at about 4mph holding up a string of cars behind it... very lucky timing. Exposure was 17 seconds. Still using the kit lens, but for this type of thing, it seems to do a good job!

Wonderful location and a great time to go for a shot and you pulled it off I like this the trail lights are a bonus I think it would work with or without them nicely done.

All the best

For somebody who feels cold when the temperature drops below plus 25 it is very difficult for me to get off my butt to do something like this, but, as Andy says, it is so well worth the effort.
