that last pic in your 2nd post is stunning with all the snow spray. One for the Gallery me thinks.

I bet Scotty's still cleaning his car though

Fantastic shots Micky

Absolutely love the richness of the colour in those shots. Especially the reds.

Youve sold me on the 300D

ROFL @ thongs in the snow.

Just recently, I got slammed on a someone's weblog (ahh the perks of being a much-hated political figure on a university campus), which a had a photo of me wearing sandals with long pants (which I don't see the problem with), with a circle around them and the caption "WTF??".

I don't think I'd be game to wear them in the snow though Todd!

I had no intention to drive in snow when I set out this morning

I like driving bare footed and the best way is with thongs... i dont feel the cold much.
