What a beautiful day in the Ottawa region. Blue skies and temps above 0c. As a result we had wonderful blue skies with lots of fresh white snow thanks to the storm the other day. Santa brought new snowshoes to Jen and I at Christmas but we really haven't had enough snow to try them out. Today was the day! At the same time it was a perfect day to try out the 2 new lenses. I've only had the Tamron 17-50mm for 2 days so this was it's first real workout and the more I use the Nikon 80-200mm the more impressed and happy I am with the purchase. It has to be the best lens I've ever used. Along the walk we enjoyed the company of 2 of the farms dogs. Jessy and Monchique (I think I have the names and spelling correct).

Jessy and Monchique (I think I have the names and spelling correct) playing with Jen. They are her new best friends ;-) Seems throwing snow for hours is something they enjoy.
