Freezing Cold but Very Beautiful!

These are a few pics I took yesterday from the shore of Lake Taupo.  A freezing cold wind was blowing from the South, but I couldn't resist experimenting with lenses and apertures to capture the distant snow covered mountains. 

The snowy peaks in the background (bringing joy to all the skiers!) and low hung cloud making this a wintery view.

Too chilly for a sight seeing flight and even the gulls weren't getting their feet wet, but I see a small launch had braved the weather probably on a fishing trip!
