We had our first dusting of snow last night. Just enough to paint the banks of Honey Creek a gentle white. The sunlight is straining to break through the heavy branches. The temperatures were just cold enough last night to form the thinnest glaze of ice on the water. This was the scene at 7AM this morning. Honest comments and especially critiques please!

We got hit with a three minute blizzard last night, too. Here, and then over before the windshield wipers got warmed up.

I like your use of the stream diagonally cutting across the center of the picture forming several points of interest. You have wonderful reflections in the stream, as well.

I hate snow, so please keep it all in Wisconsin!!! lol.

I Like How the Sun is Shining It's Spot Light Through The Trees.
Excellent Image of What Is and What's To Come.

It looked like that around her in Northwest Ohio, too, this morning. It's already gone. Nice shot with great lighting at the top of the shot. Great reflections, too.

I really like this photo of Winnie the Pooh's creek GBRx3. The light shining in the brush adds a nice effect. The kind of scene I would expect to see a deer. Nice post.

I'll meet you at the edge of the sunlight, just behind the shadows. Anyone who does not like clouds, does not like to dream. The Ghost

Oh dear... I'm afraid I can no longer deny the inevitable... but this is a lovely shot with the frosting of snow around the meandering stream, and just a hint of sunlight filtering through. I like!

While this is a pretty shot I think it could have been better if you would have lightened it a bit.

This is a great shot, it makes me almost shiver just looking at it! It has nice clarity and I really like the way the trees are highlighted by the sun coming up! Great job! :)

I like this a lot Rich. The gentle sunlight compensates for the bleak coldnes of the snow and the way you have caught the golden reflection is especially pleasing.
