Too cold to play

It was definitely far too cold for me to go out to play. At this time there was a mixture of sun and snow, though very little snow.

Normally I would not risk a picture of the childrens' playground at Duthie Park in case of getting hassled about taking photos with children in them. So today as there were no children to be seen it seemed too good an opportunity to miss. The colours of this roller were no doubt less bright and colourful in its working days. Maybe it was too cold for the children, or more likely for their parents.

I considered cleaning up the rollers in Photoshop, In reality I expect the council has better things to spend its money on. There is construction work going on in Duthie park at the moment to restore it and bring it up to date. Just near to this roller there was its modern equivalent with the engine running and a man sitting reading the paper. As he had a closed cab it was probably quite warm he was perhaps quite cosy.
