Thank you wind and sublimation for scouring the ice surface since yesterday. Would have been nice to get some sun but the stratocumulus didn’t want to comply.

Great photos!

I'm looking into the bright side of things with the clouds in this case, at least they help mute how horrifically bad and ugly those 2 Daniels Waterfront towers are.

I didn't want to offend skycandy-san's potentially matured status though, so I tried to keep my line of questioning age neutral. But yeah, that Simpson's meme did come to my mind... >.<
