The power of winter
Stops water in its tracks —
Freezing reflections and skies
Onto its icy surface.
Scenes like this make me want to burst out into song: ‘The cold never bothered me anyway.’
For more frozen (or warmer) views, please visit: Skywatch.
Beautiful scene.

A suggestion of thaw coming – maybe? Sometimes I think God puts on a show just for you and your readers to enjoy.

“Scenes like this make me want to burt out into song: ‘The cold never bothered me anyway.’”
Me as well, Fiona. There is something glorious about the cold of winter and the way it transforms nature in to a different kind of beauty. To me there is something utterly beautiful about the barrenness of the cold and winter.
Amazing photographs, my friend! Have a super weekend!

Ladyfi, Your sky shot with the frozen water shots are beautiful. I love how the clouds swirl against the orange sky. You a special knack for getting right time after time. I remember my first and only visit to one of the Great Lakes in Feb. 2000 and having that sense of wonder seeing such a vast body of water that was frozen ~ so awesomely amazing! The wind was so horrible that we could only stand outdoors long enough to capture a family shot, then back in the car we got. lol
