A bit of foreground interest. [explored 26-05-2019]

            When the world is covered in snow it's actually quite hard to take a photograph to show just how beautiful it all is - and it is!
The camera underexposes and any foreground interest is usually just more snow.

I had spied this little boat on the sea ice the evening before so I worked out how to slide down to it and went back.
I took the big Sony and spent some time here but following my First or Last rule, as I walked away I took a couple of shots with the compact. This was the last shot and my favorite.

The first shot or last shot you take is always your best.
