Thank you very much, Jim! Fairly simply done, too; the main light is from the (visible) window to the right and a little bit of fill light via flash inside a soft box from my left.
I already posted a related image in a different thread. This is another one (from A1 + Tamron 35-150) on the subject "Poor man's paradise - cheap seaside hotel." I like bright colors.
Thanks. Yes, eventually I did; two buckets of packed snow equals half a bucket of water as it turned out. I needed water for washing the dishes on day one though. Well, will be better prepared next time : )
Here's a few from this winter and last year's fall.

We all have our hobbies. For example, I trully enjoy "fishing" for different Minolta glass from e-bay Japanese sellers.
Mino glass has magic I can not explain.
And certain pieces of this heritage glass are unique. 80-210 2.8 APO is numero uno, everybody is in love with it pastel colours.
But once I have discovered unexpected gem - Minolta 100 2.8 SoftFocus. I was trully surprised how expensive this lens is (in Mino's terms, GM prices are different)))) - just before I took the furst picture with it.
IT WAS PURE MAGIC!!!
I have fallen in love so deeply that flew to Venice for 3 days with just this lens and 1635GM.
Such pleasant unexpected discoveries bring a bit of spicy colours to our lifes.)...Show more →
