March winds brought snow #1

Posted by
Curly (South Shields, United Kingdom) on 18 March 2013 in Miscellaneous and Portfolio.

Just a few pictures taken from the shelter of my mother-in-law's kitchen last week. March winds also blew in a few snow showers and brought us some sub zero temperatures. It certainly was not the time to be hanging clothes on the line!

Somehow I have managed to cobble together seven pictures for the coming week, nothing of great or exceptional quality, but at least they'll give you something to chat about.

FUJIFILM FinePix F550EXR 1/320 second F/5.3 ISO 1250 66 mm

Something about clothespins that makes them photo-material - somewhere out there must be a site devoted to them whatever the weather !
