While in our latitude the bees already buzz around the flowers that literally exploded out of the ground and twigs, higher places such as Mt. Galicica still gather new snow layers every time the clouds brush against the summit.
Nothing unusual, though, for sometimes we swim in already nicely warm lake water (between last week in May and mid June) and can still watch the snow up there.

Location
This is one of my usual views right from the home; the one that delightfully changes in the matter of hours: Mt. Galicica across 15 kilometers of Lake Ohrid width.Time
March 11th, 15:43 hoursLighting
Natural daylight on early March afternoon - no other sources.Equipment
Camera was a Nikon P610, at 32.2mm, aperture f/5.3, ISO100, -0.30eV, pattern measuring. Shot out of hand with no add-on gear.Inspiration
The magnificent Mount Galicica happens to be inspiration enough, although it is an everyday sight from where I live. I have many photos of the same scenery, but it does change during the day and year sufficiently, so it remains an interesting theme.Editing
The only processing would be some cropping, and the usual resizing before the upload.In my camera bag
I use a photo vest, since I find it more practical than the bag. Its pockets are dedicated to a small spare camera, spare batteries, some ND and a CPL filter, a camera clamp (instead of a tripod), and some EDCs like a sturdy pocket knife, a length of paracord, a lighter... maybe a small water bottle and a bar of chocolate. This I can use for any improvising that might be necessary, and to keep me going for the whole day. In the large back pocket of the vest I might decide to keep a lightweight poncho that covers all the sensitive gear in case of rain.Feedback
Keep your curiosity high, and not only for new things around! There are many everyday things which we consider so common as to let them lose their visual importance, and yet these might be equally attractive if we just choose to notice it.
