Well here's the problem. It's getting right cold out there and even the warmest gloves are useless when you have a camera with buttons and switches to deal with. This morning I was only out for 45 minutes and had to duck into the van for a warm-up and lens change four times! I do have an excellent bit of headgear I sewed together out of a couple of thrift-store plushies, pure luxury warm, but it just doesn't cut it when it comes to gloves.

So here's my save my fingers and toes from frostbite and allow me to concentrate on taking pictures rather than freezing to death plea. I'd like to get these gloves and socks but it's a bit much for me now. Urrr! I've nothing against beggars but I hate being one myself so be assured that if you toss a few bucks in you'll eventually be getting a print or postcard in the mail sometime in the future. I've posted the PayPal donation button on LJ as well as a gift of a full-sized picture.

I know you're here because you like my pictures and I thank you for your attention, kind words and all that. With these I'll be able do the best I can to keep serving up the best pictures I can.

Frostbite... It feels like you've taken a blowtorch to your fingers and feet!
