A winter capture on the Tippy River which is down the road from my house and where those ducks are spending the winter months. Used that canon zoom again for this one.

This song came to mind One of my oldie favorites.

Thanks in advance for your comments, It's most appreciated.

Love the natural tones in this scene that contrast nicely with the snow. It's been years since I heard that song, so thanks for the link Sandi. Excellent capture.

Love the colours and reflections in this image Sandi. I think i'd brush the snow off the log, go home and throw it on the fire. Then sit back and enjoy my The Principle Of Moments album.
Great post

This is just wonderful, Sandi. I love the rich colors you captured in this winter scene, and of course the snow and water set it off very well.

You have a great eye, my friend.

Wonderful and moody image my friend. The snow covered log and bank of the river give a special touch to this image.

I like the mahogany tones in this, the light and the sharpness in all the right places. The reflections are great too, as is the accent provided by the snow. It has lots of richness and deserves that high score!
