Took this one today down at the Tippy River, where the ducks hang out and this is the same place that my Big Log image was taken , just few days later and a bit warmer out. Used the natural light of the day and the canon ef70-300mm IS USM lens.

Thank you in advance for your comments.

That is breathtaking...I love the reflections onto that clear ice. The contrasting brown of the tree. really adds to this wonderful image. Another winner in my book.

Looks like you guys are experiencing a thaw of some sort, Sandi. Great colors and I feel spring coming on!

I think your new lens has insured you will have no more bad shots Mizz Febz. This is a great example. I believe you talent has reached the level you worked to attain. Such a beauty.

Sandi dear,
this is more beautiful for words. It shows atrocity of winter and yearning for kindness of spring at the same time.

Very nice comp, with that log in the foreground leading into the line of the river, then the rhythm of all the tree trunks behind. Very well executed too, I especially like the smoothness of the water and the contrasting textures.

There is something about this image that really captures my mind. It's a simple scene but I could stare at it forever. maybe it's the super accurate capture of the ice and it's subtleties of color. Or maybe it's the deep dark woods. Keep-pah!

Stunning... this is really beautifully captured Sandi. I'd love to get to take a walk in an environment so breath-taking. You're a lucky woman to get to experience this! It hardly ever snows here so thank you for taking advantage of your gorgeous surroundings and sharing them with me!
