A Bridge Too Far

I came here expecting to find the stream iced over so I could stand in the middle of the stream and get some photos. Mom Nature had other ideas in mind and decided I would be better served by standing in freezing cold water up to the soles of my boots on a rocky outcrop near the middle of the stream. Did I mention I discovered I had a smallish hole in one of my boots? As for the bridge, it is located at the back of the park, as far from the entrance as you can get and still be in the park. Unless you came in from the back entrance, in which case it is not that far at all, just out of the way.

Enjoy and your comments welcomed.

You did go through a lot to get this shot, but that is what a photographer do, isnīt it. I hope you had dry socks and boots so you could get warm quickly.
The photo is Beautiful. I love the light and the mirrored trees.
Very well done.

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust
