The only sunrise pics I have are midwinter ones - when sunrise is late in the morning.
I'm not an early riser.

A winter view of Pisgah National Forest in the mountains of North Carolina centers on John Rock, a lesser-known cliff formation defined by its vertical scale and exposed structure. Snow settles directly into the rock face, collecting within striations and vertical grooves that run through the cliff. Rather than obscuring the stone, the snow sharpens its lines, accentuating the monolithic form and making its geology visibly legible.
Set against the surrounding forest and distant ridgelines, the cliff reads as a singular surface—marked by erosion, time, and weather. The perspective allows the striated face to be seen without interruption, where snow traces the internal order of the rock and emphasizes its weight and permanence. Vertical channels guide the eye through the composition, turning natural fracture into rhythm.
John Rock is rarely seen from this perspective: direct, substantial, and quietly monumental—a familiar landscape offering an unfamiliar face.

November 2005. Extreme winter weather. Heavy snowfall with the result that the residents were without electricity for 4 days.
A couple is walking hand in hand among the ice floes. They are not worried about falling into the frozen sea water.
Photo taken 01.16.24. In Texas, it's not often that ponds start to ice up. It's been cold for several days now. The temperatures have ranged from the low teens to mid 20s. That's just cold enough to put a thin layer of ice around a few of the banks. Photo copyright Clif Bosler 2024

Snow in Northern Virginia covering the trees and the road after a January Blizzard . I darkened the pavement just a bit for a more dramatic effect in post processing.
Do your part. Things will not be the same tomorrow.
This year winter seems so prolonged here in Bangladesh.
Right now extreme cold wave is passing over.
Some street children are trying to comfort themselves around a fire.

Even though the wind was gusting up to 45 MPH and blowing snow like crazy, it was just another day on the farm, Highland Farms in Cornish that is.

A cute young Pottok Foal stands near the river stream Gave de Bious at Parc National des Pyrénées, situated 1,372 metres above sea level in the Pyrenees Mountain Range of Atlantiques, France. A foal is a young horse that is under a year old. When a foal is born it is very quickly able to stand up as well as to run - possibly in order to escape predators or to reach its mothers milk. A foal is usually weaned between 5 to 7 months old. In the wild, young foals have to be protected from predators especially when they are first born, and they would be an easy target for some predators on the mountains. There are still bears in the Pyrénées. Every animal that lives at this height in the mountain range must be well adapted to thinner air and be able to survive by its own instincts. These horses have been living in these mountains for hundreds of years and they can be quite shy animals. Young Foals grow so rapidly however that they should be able to protect themselves and run free on the mountainside within a couple of days.
We were high up in the Pyrenees at the mountain stream Gave de Bious at elevation of 1371 meter. We met these beautiful little horses named Pottok's running free along the river, 3 km from the mountain pass Portalet d'Aneu and border crossing in the Pyrenees, between France and Spain. The young Foal came running overconfident towards me at high speed! Lucky I could escape on the ridge of this bridge.
The Pottok - little horse, pronounced pot-ee-ok is a pony native to the Pyrenees of the Basque Country in France and Spain. The pottok's origins may lie as far back as 10,000 years ago. Ancient cave paintings in the area show pottok-like horses. They are thought to descend from the Magdalenian horses of 14,000 - 7,000 BC. There are now only a few hundred left and all have owners. It has small but sturdy hooves for mountain walking and adaped well to the mountain life.
Horses treks around lakes and high mountains of the Pyrénées is a great adventure. The landscape is a succession of lakes and torrents in a wild atmosphere of high mountains. During a horse trekking adventure you might be escorted by vultures and izards. It is the favourite territory for the Isard, the Marmot, the Desman, the Lammergaier. It is a world of grandiose landscapes. An area of exceptional natural heritage without barriers or fences... where animals are totally free. Let yourself be charmed too by the Pyrenees National Park.
In this image the sun was just off to the left of the scene, backlighting the trees with a warm glow. The other part of the sky was blue with a hint of the mist that was still in the air - slowy being burned away by the sun. All I've done is accentuate the blueness a tad.

West Pond, Parsonsfield, Maine.
The last sunset for 2017.
Hope everyone had a wonderful and safe New Years eve, wishing the best for all in 2018.
Sorry I have not been on Flickr lately but the extreme cold we are having here has been causing problems with our internet service.
Temperatures have been running between -27°F below at night to around 15-20°F during the day,
This first day of the New Year started off at -17°F at 7:00 A.M. and got up to 20°F around 3:00 P.M. but it did not last long and dropped back down to 9°F right after sunset.
This is one of the coldest Decembers into the New Year that I can ever remember.
We are hoping for a slight warm up next week but until then more frigid cold is expected to continue.

The general term ice age or, more precisely, "glacial age" denotes a geological period of long-term reduction in the temperature of the Earth's surface and atmosphere, resulting in an expansion of continental ice sheets, polar ice sheets and alpine glaciers. There have been at least four major ice ages in the Earth's past. Outside these periods, the Earth seems to have been ice-free even in high latitudes. There is evidence that greenhouse gas levels fell at the start of ice ages and rose during the retreat of the ice sheets, but it is difficult to establish cause and effect (see the notes above on the role of weathering). Greenhouse gas levels may also have been affected by other factors which have been proposed as causes of ice ages, such as the movement of continents and vulcanism. Although the last glacial period ended more than 8,000 years ago, its effects can still be felt today. For example, the moving ice carved out landscape in Canada, Greenland, northern Eurasia and Antarctica. The erratic boulders, till, drumlins, eskers, fjords, kettle lakes, moraines, cirques, horns, etc., are typical features left behind by the glaciers.
This is the Marken lighthouse, given its name due to its shape ('paard' means 'horse' in dutch). The original was built in 1700, then reconstructed on top of the early foundations in 1839. It's still in use today.
Photo of hummocks taken at the lighthouse of Marken. A red airplane flew pretty low around the lighthouse to enjoy the view of the sea of ice. A hummock is a boss or rounded knoll of ice rising above the general level of an ice-field, Hummocky ice is caused by slow and unequal pressure in the main body of the packed ice, and by unequal structure and temperature at a later period.
Een ijstijd of glaciatie is een geologisch tijdvak waarin ijskappen voorkomen. In het Engels wordt dit een periode van ice-house genoemd, als tegenhanger van een ijskaploze periode, de greenhouse ("broeikas"). Aangezien er gletsjers liggen op bijvoorbeeld Groenland of Antarctica, leven we tegenwoordig in een ijstijd. Men neemt aan dat dit in de gehele geologische geschiedenis van de Aarde minstens vijfmaal het geval is geweest, waarvan eenmaal zelfs zo sterk dat de ijskappen van de polen vrijwel tot aan de evenaar waren opgerukt. Ook zijn er periodes dat er aanzienlijke opwarming optrad waarbij die ijskappen grotendeels waren weggesmolten. Het klimaat op Aarde wordt beïnvloed door vele factoren, zoals de intensiteit van de zonnestraling, de ligging van de continenten, de continentverplaatsingen, vulkanisme, de zeestromen, de bedekking van het land door vegetatie, het weerkaatsingsvermogen van het aardoppervlak en vele kleine andere factoren. Met behulp van klimaatmodellen wordt door wetenschappers een reconstructie van het klimaat en de klimaatveranderingen in het verleden gemaakt. Alhoewel er een zekere consensus bestaat onder wetenschappers, zijn er nog vele onzekerheden en tegenstrijdigheden in dit onderzoek.
Hierboven een foto van kruiend ijs. Zoetwatermeren kunnen spectaculair bevriezen. Grotere meren zoals het IJsselmeer (IJmeer) hierboven hebben bijna altijd wel golven, en dit werkt directe bevriezing van het wateroppervlak tegen. Eerst vormen zich kleine ijsschotsen, die naar de kust drijven onder invloed van de wind. Deze schotsen vormen zo een ijsveld op het water dat de golven dempt, en uiteindelijk vriezen alle schotsen aan elkaar vast tot een massa. Voordat dit gebeurt schuren de schotsen voortdurend langs elkaar heen en schrapen zo stukjes ijs van elkaar af; elke schots krijgt zo een witte rand. Zulk ijs is dus totaal niet geschikt om op te schaatsen. Wanneer grotere delen van het meer bevriezen beginnen de platen, die soms een paar vierkante kilometer groot zijn, langzaam tegen elkaar te bewegen onder invloed van de wind en stroming. Dit heeft kruiend ijs tot gevolg: de ijsschotsen worden met kracht gebroken en op elkaar gestapeld langs de dijken langs het meer. Dit hoeft niet alleen bij dun ijs te gebeuren; soms kruit het ijs bij een dikte van meer dan 20 cm. De stapels ijs worden dan hoog, en het geluid is oorverdovend. Het Paard van Marken is een vuurtoren van Marken. De vuurtoren is gebouwd in 1839 en staat op de oostelijke punt van het eiland. De toren heeft een hoogte van 16 meter en een lichtbereik van 16,7 km.
Edited this one a bit more than what usually, to get that certain look on crows. Anyway, somewhere north from the Wall

Another foggy day at the Golden Temple and I enjoyed it as much as I do, always. This ‘Sewadar’ was performing the cleaning work of the ‘Sarowar’ or the sacred pond of Harimandir Sahib (Golden Temple) when I got this opportunity to save this moment forever. He was using a make-shift boat to do his work.
There have been all foggy mornings since last week with occasional drizzles on couple of days. I have tried my best to be at the ‘Heavenly abode’ as much as I could to preserve the memories. The temperature, last week dropped to -1.20 degrees Celsius and it was quite cold.
"Mallard Snow Landing" by Patti Deters. A drake Mallard duck (Anas platyrhynchos) flies in for a landing during a snow storm. He doesn't seem overly concerned about the cold weather, but it sure was windy outdoors for me! These birds one of the more colorful waterfowl around during the winter here in Minnesota.

Goodbye to warm weather and my final pack of 779 -
Self portrait for Save Polaroid .
I love that I see a different world
when I look through the viewfinder of my SX-70...
It's my portal to a parallel universe -
one that's bathed in a glowy warmth
and where captured slices of time exist
only in square(ish) format.
Each exposure is different;
like snowflakes,
no two are ever alike.
