I walked 11 miles yesterday in a local state forest. The sun was in hiding most of the day, and the final few miles were in an increasing rain, but it was still a nice day. It was cold enough in the hollow where I started that I wore gloves the first few miles. Despite the cold, wind, and gloom, there were a lot more people in the woods than I've ever seen, even on the remote, higher elevation trails. I did discover that a wide-brim hat makes an effective rain shield for the Nex. I took a lot of pics, and here are some of my favorites. They were all taken with the Yashinon-DX 45/1.7.
