Colder than it looks

Hopped around some for my photo hike this weekend, stopping at several locations. Drove out to Navarre and walked the fishing pier again. It was a little cloudy when the day started out, and the sky was amazing.

Took the long way home through Milton and then hit a few spots nearer to home. It was a cold day, hovering in the low 50s, but you couldn’t tell from how blue and bright the skies were.

  14. I’m wondering how cold “colder than it looks” really is.

    I could show pictures of our SNOW and say “warmer than it looks” – - – ’cause for here for this time of year, it’s pretty warm at 28 degrees!

    • Other than cropping, the sky shots were not edited, but were Straight from Camera. They really were that color naturally.
