\"Ice<\/a>

Ice coating moss and grass in the front yard<\/p><\/div>\n

We woke yesterday to a layer of ice over everything. I hurried my breakfast to get out as soon as there was light enough, and\u00a0before the layer melted. I might as well not have hurried. When I went out at 6PM to run an errand I still had to chip a half inch of ice off the car before I could go. \ud83d\ude42 I took lots of subjects, lichen covered branches, leaves, etc…as I walked around the front yard, but I particularly liked this set of macro shots of grass and moss.<\/p>\n

Sony HX400V at about 60mm equivalent field of view from inches away. Using Program Shift, I dialed the f-stop down for greater depth of field and counted on the image stabilization built into the lens to cover the resulting slow shutter speeds. I also took a burst of images on each subject to ensure I got at least one critically sharp.<\/p>\n
