From my lunch walk on New Year's Eve

[QuietOne]

Yes, I had to work. The high was 25F. The ice picture was done from the bank - there were definitely some interesting angles to be had if you were dressed for standing shin deep in the water. Alas, I was not. Clashes with the office dress code.

Oh I really like that second one. The red really stands out against the white background. Also I like the ice formations in the third one.

[QuietOne]

Thank you, asnow. I've been trying to do something interesting with those berries for a couple of weeks. The snow and the pond freezing over finally gave me a decent background.

Like these a lot. Number 2 does have very nice color. Like the composition on the 3rd one too.

Three very nice shots there Q1.

#1 I love the tones & lines
#2 Nice composition and I like the colour standing out from the background.
#3 Cool shapes in the ice and I like the movement of the water.

Nice work

Thanks, Realist and Runmonty. Some of the snow melted off today, but we're supposed to get more tonight.

Nice work

Agree with all the above. Nicely done QO

Great shots. I find it interesting the shapes the ice can make near moving water...I have a shot that looks like a perfect bar rack!

Thanks, HBG and Randitola. The water there is very shallow, but kinda fast. It's provided by a small spillway leading off a man made pond behind the apartments. Lots of spray coating anything that falls in - in this case, a large tree limb.
