Old Man Winter is definitely breathing down our necks as the ice starts to slowly enfold the water of the river...soon we'll be able to walk on it.

My age is showing. This is one of those shots that make me think B&W and a bottle of selenium toner. The water reminds me of a child fighting to avoid going to sleep. Like the child, the water doesn't seem to know that it is going to lose. You've done it again PJ. A wonderful shot that you can spend hours getting lost in all the thread of beautiful detail.

Nice shot. We are in the grip of old man winter here now too. Cold and foggy with lots of fresh snow here this morning!

No trees were killed in the sending of this message. However, a large number of electrons were terribly inconvenienced.
Some very nice textures in the shot, and with the shadows on it this shot looks very good.

If practice makes perfect and nobody is perfect, then why practice?
You know, I'm starting to think winter is my favourite time of year. With all these wonderful snow and ice pictures that are starting to appear and the amazing golden winter sunshine we have had here today. I love the coolness and freshness in this PJ, and the contrast of the snow with the black water. Not a place for Owd Bob to fall into.

A nice view of this iced river. A little less about the ramp in the bottom of the image. It looks like our french alps river today.

Great photo and I like the angle. I'm glad you didn't topple over and end up in that obviously cold water. Just a great photo. Like the snow and grasses contrast. Running water and cold air make me...... I'll be right back.

And we will all be able to do some ice skating, I can't wait! Nice one PJ!

It's been above freezing and raining all the time here in the last few days. No ice yet, and what little snow we had is gone. I like this shot and the way you composed it. Very nice.

I don't know how you did it, but somehow you've managed to make an image of snow, ice and icy rushing water look warm! The light on this is exquisite.

Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away ~ George Carlin
It's so white and pristine, it looks like a confection with icing. Pretty winter shot, PJ.

You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being.

wonderful shot! no missteps please!

sorry if i don't comment on each of your pictures. to those of you who comment so often, i can't imagine how you get it done!
Please Visit My Gallery
When I was 10 we lived in Scotland and the big pond near our house would freeze in winter and I learnt to ice-skate there. We don't tend to get weather so consistently cold for that to happen now I live in the North-west of England. Great shot and great memories.

If a thing is worth doing, it is worth doing badly.
G. K. Chesterton.
If you would like to see this sentiment in action please look at My Gallery
I like this one a lot PJ! The lighting is great and the ice and water coexisting is always a cool image. Both are the same temperature, but the water still has more energy, for now....

Great shot, the textures are pretty cool (excuse the pun) and a very well executed shot of the start of winter.
