The pond in front of the visitor's center at Magee Marsh looks like it would make a great skating rink. I don't know if it is used for skating or not.

Thanks for the comments, friends.

Oh that roof! I don't know whether to laugh at it or feel sorry for the poor carpenters that had to build it using all those weird angles.

Nice looking shot Jim. I like the balance between the pond, the sky and the building. Whether people use it for skating or not, you won't find me on that ice :)

A lovely shot! The icy blue pond is echoed by the sky. Nice composition with an interesting looking building.

A beautiful scene Jimbo. That roof is the perfect example of why you don't leave a bunch of drunken roofers unsupervised. Great capture.

The roof ... Well, there is no snow on the roof, so maybe the carpenter did a fine job after all! Jim, you did a fine job also, as usual, but there is still too much ice there.

I think it would make a great skating rink. I noticed the unique roof on the visitor's center too. I can imagine this is a busy place in the summer. Wonderful capture Jim.

The roof has more curves then Angelina Jolie and Pam Anderson combined. Talk about the ability to thaw. Another good one in the series that is dominating the Featured Images. Excellent work Jimbob.

All that snow this year seems to have collapsed the roof a bit. Lol. I love this shot, so crisp and clear and well composed.

Hi Jim
That roof on this visitors center is an oddball!! I have roofed many places through the years but nothing like that! You sure have a pretty shot here!
