Cromwell, Connecticut, USA. This horse broke away from the group in search of a cold drink of water. The cold part was easy. Finding a spot in the stream that wasn't frozen over required a precarious walk through the ice crusted snow to this lone access to water. Enjoy!

My idea of a cold drink is a nice tall, frosted glass of Hires Root Beer. AHHHHHH! This is fantastic, Thad. Such great color and clarity, and super lighting. Voon-duh-bah!! LOL.

I am an A & W man myself, Thad. Paint in a photo. Gotta love it.
Beautiful work and tell it about the O. K. Corral when you get a chance.

Oh and I bet that was some very cold water for sure! This is such a beautiful image! It does almost look like a painting! Great shot.

What a lovely shot, Thad. I was expecting a coke can, but this is surprisingly much better than anything I could have imagined. Great shot.

Poor horse has to search so much for water. Nice image with the snow brightly lit by the sun.

The reason why the sunsets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB

I like the slight white vignette. It works well to enhance the shot.

A very frosty looking day and a marvelous winter photo, Thad! This is a beautifully composed shot, and the misty-white vignetting is a nice addition. Excellent camera work, as well.
