One of the photos I took in France a couple of weeks ago. I went out shooting in St Marcellin de Cray, a little village in Burgundy, and managed to stick the freezing temperatures for a total of about 20 minutes. I was dressed up quite warmly but I (stupidly) had no gloves because I don’t feel as comfortable shooting with them. By then end of it I had to rush into the car (which, thankfully, was still warm because I left it running).
Even in freezing temperatures it is very hard not to appreciate the beauty around you in the French countryside. This bench, sitting there all alone, would have taken quite some courage to use in that weather, but I have been to the same place in Spring and Summer and nothing is more peaceful than spending some time there listening the little stream go by.
