This image was taken last evening and despite being nowhere near the temperatures we had this past weekend, it ranked right up there with the most excruciating pain my hands ever experienced. Yesterday was much milder through the day so I got a bit complacent when I went out to shoot the sunset. I got safely pulled off into a snow pile along the road and then hiked across this farm field with camera, 2 lenses and tripod. I had a very thin pair of gloves on and till I was finished it was close to an hour standing out in the cold. I kept prolonging it because I wanted the interior lights to show up and I was too lazy to walk to my truck for better gloves. When I got back in my vehicle my hands hurt so bad I just sat there rocking in my seat fighting the pain. It was only 25 degrees but as soon as the sun went down you could feel the cold settling in.
