If I still like a shot a few months after I took it, chances are it really is good. However, today I&#8217;m breaking that &#8216;rule&#8217; and posting a shot I took only two days ago. I&#8217;ve been in NUI Maynooth for about 11 years (first as a student, then as an employee), and in all that time it has never snowed while I was on campus. Until Tuesday afternoon that is, when the place was blanketed with snow. I didn&#8217;t even wait for the snow to stop falling to get out there with my camera, and I&#8217;m glad I didn&#8217;t, or I&#8217;d never have gotten this shot!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.bartbusschots.ie\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/02\/dsc-7668.jpg\" alt=\"Braving the Snow\" style=\"border-width:0px;\" width=\"460\" height=\"329\" \/><br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/bbusschots\/3253603167\" target=\"_blank\">on Flickr<\/a> &#8211; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/bbusschots\/3253603167\/sizes\/o\/\" target=\"_blank\">Full-Size<\/a><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Camera:<\/strong> Nikon D40<\/li>\n<li><strong>Lens:<\/strong> Nikon DX AFS 18-55mm (D40 kit lens)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Exposure:<\/strong> 1\/60 sec<\/li>\n<li><strong>Focal Length:<\/strong> 18mm<\/li>\n<li><strong>Focal Ratio:<\/strong> F8<\/li>\n<li><strong>ISO:<\/strong> 400<\/li>\n<li><strong>Camera Mode:<\/strong> Aperture Priority<\/li>\n<li><strong>Exposure Bias:<\/strong> +1.0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With all the excitement of moving to Aperture I forgot to post a Photo of the Week last weekend, and I&#8217;ve only just noticed my oversight now.
