The month is January and it is 20 Below Zero. The water in the Columbia River is warmer than the air around it therefore fog. As the fog passes over the very cold trees it forms hoarfrost. I don't know about you but I think it's just a little too cold for a picnic.

Love it! Excellent composition as usual. I like the contrast between the snow and the grey background, and the trees and the fog. Yeah, good contrasts. And very cold too. :) Great photo.

Excellent shot Michael. I certainly miss the beautiful winter scenery but not the freezing temps. Thanks for sharing this. Cheers Al.

Its a beautiful image, I like the simple elegance here, but it looks much to cold for me.

There are three colours, Ten digits and seven notes, its what we do with them that’s important.

Almost other worldly except for the human touch of the picnic table. You don't need a lot of words to get the point across. Excellent!

we are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking up at the stars
Beautiful pic and brings so much relief too when used as a desktop in the present unbearably hot weather ...

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you are a mile away from them, and you have their shoes.

Not as dramatic as a lot of your work, but this one has an ethereal beauty that sets it apart from most winter shots, and the composition is very pleasing too :-)

Very interesting subject matter- really makes the eye stay on the subject matter for more than a few seconds. Nice work.

Beautiful subtle color here. I am not sure about the composition, I think the tree on the left is a bit close to the edge? It just feels not quite right for some reason. But that's probably just me.

Mull3tboii - Life is good, please enjoy it while is lasts.
This shot is under-rated. I think it should have a higher index than it has. It looks almost like a model on a table - it's so empty.

"Violence is the last resort of the incompetent" (I. Asimov)
i'm just wondering why you kept the blueish tinge in the shadows of the trees? i know it adds to the cold feel, but it seems like its just a little too much. oh well, this is such an amazing shot anyways, i can complain at all

I like how the fog highlights the other elements in the image.Well captured Michael.

Well, this cooled me off! Beautiful scene - so clear and frosty appearing. The lonely picnic table adds a touch of cheery red. I love how bright the snow is, with the blue shadows. Very COOL image :> 10+

Very beautiful, a little winter wonderland, a reminder of what´s to come. The coldest I can remember it has been where I live was -41*C and the warmest about +34*C.

Breathtaking and magnificent. I can almost hear the silence and breathe in the cold. One of your best photos. Verena

Good people are good because they've come to wisdom through failure. We get very little wisdom from success, you know.
Really a good one Michael. It looks like everything is in miniature.
