It is cold out there! Just came in from the outside world (in good ole NYC) and it is definitely 20 degrees colder than when I left the house. Thankfully, I was only walking two blocks to watch Project Runway with my mom. I agree with the common consensus that this week's designs were not particularly inspirational.
Speaking of the cold, apparently it's good for your digital camera's sensor! Here's a quote from the article:
"Zodiac Light did an interesting experiment in which a Canon 350D was cooled, and the amount of noise measured. They found that cooling the sensor resulted in a 40% drop in the amount of noise."
I can't say I'd take my expensive camera and stick it in the freezer, but it's nice to know that when I've decided to freeze my fingers off taking a (cold) night shot, it'll most likely be less noisy.
