Weather, UK

A selection of weather images from my tiny island. Wild and calm, wet and dry and most definitely extreme in one way shape or form.
EDIT - the occasional Euro location may also be thrown in this gallery too ;-)

    Olympus E5 ice test - Christmas Day 2010. The extraordinary cold snap continues. Overnight temps dropped to -10C. I set up a time lapse shoot to capture the Olympus E5 freezing over.  E5 with 7-14mm was left out all night and the time lapse captured with the E3, which was fitted with the dew shield (to prevent ice forming on lens). The E3 was still firing away the following morning. I picked up the E5, switched on and that worked straight away too. These extreme cold tests are what the camera is up against when I capture my all night star trails and time lapses. Extreme gear for an extreme world :-) The amazing time lapse video will be uploaded soon.
    Olympus E5 extreme cold test - Dec 20th 2010. The extraordinary cold snap is gripping the UK with snow and cold temps unseen in recent years. No better extreme environment to test the camera gear than this. Overnight temps dropped to -9C. Olympus E5 bundled with the 7-14mm was left out all night shooting. I deliberately left the dew shield off in order for it to get cold tested. Camera was still working when I picked it up the next morning. No better test that this. :-)
