Your wintertime shots are a sight to behold. The frost makes everything look amazing. Here in Ohio, we have brown water, brown tree branches and brown grass. Thank the Lord for editing software! Cornelius, your series is beautiful.
Quoting the spouse: "Hey! That's pretty good! I like that." Please bear in mind that she is not one given to outbursts of praise. You have elicited a very rare response. I must agree with her, Cornelius, if you will forgive the understatement.

Hey Cornelius,
I love how you managed to capture such a contrast of light,
Beautiful tree, huge, looking over the landscape, shivering from the fresh breeze,
Nicely done,
Excellent post Cornelius and I'm glad to see you're back and at it. Hope you're gaining everyday. I really like this. I have a shot with ice that is very similiar that I haven't posted. I'll wait until folks get over this great photo. I like the framing as well. You are a master my good friend.

The tree almost seems to be wired for electricity! It positively glows with a heavenly kind of neon. Great composition. Once again, you have made winter a marvel.
