A tranquil morning with the mist rolling of the lake into the scene. The Ivy caught my eye to this scene covering the tree to the right. The light did the rest.

Sad but this is a familiar sight that can be seen in many other large cities...

This staircase leads to the lake view at Sheboygan's Blue Harbor Resort. During a non-pandemic summer many wedding ceremonies focus on it. In winter months, it's not used very often. I took this photo before our artic air arrived.

Today was one of those gorgeous mornings... covered in frost... in my own backyard

What caught my eye is the snow coating even the underside of the branches... Smile on Saturday

Chinese fishermen have long used trained cormorants to catch fish from the region's rivers. These birds are trained to catch and spit out fish. Here, you can see how the cormorants perch with their wings open to dry their feathers in the sun. Unlike ducks, cormorants’ feathers are not very waterproof. While the water-resistant feathers protect other birds' bodies from getting soaked, the oily coating isn’t great for diving. Cormorants’ feathers instead get waterlogged, allowing the bird to sink and dive more efficiently.

I looked down at the stream and found these beautiful patterns spread across the ice. Hard to capture in a photo, but I tried.

Taken in the Kallahti nature reserve in Helsinki on the Gulf of Finland coast in January. Now it looks like this is the iciest coastal landscape here this winter. Although the forecast promises a little frost for the last few days of the week, when the situation may be a little better. Let's hope the camera will have work to do then (A7R6995-1e).
