The long dark days of winter suppress my cheer
Freezing temperatures and mists penetrate my soul
I yearn for spring
It seems so distant
But wait, the forest isn't bleak
Some trees cling onto to summer leaves
They illuminate my soul providing me with comfort
The forest is soothing
Tranquillity allows me time to slow down
To walk more slowly, to marvel at nature
To be thankful I am alive
Rejoice, winter can still be enchanting
After a few days of sun and balmy weather winter strikes back and presents us with freezing temperatures and a strong icy wind in Northern Germany.
So apparently we have to warm ourselves with colorful memories of last summer like this one :-)

Nach ein paar sonnigen und milden Tagen schlägt nun der Winter zurück und bringt uns in Norddeutschland Frost und eisigen starken Wind.
Also müssen wir uns wohl an farbenfrohen Erinnerungen an den letzten Somer wärmen, so wie diese hier. :-)

We have another cold front but not freezing temperatures. This is a photo of ice in the street from the December ice storm.
Happy day & new month ~ February is here, the last official month of winter!
...days are getting longer & brighter, which is nice besides the freezing temperatures that we' ve been having.
Curves & triangles are my sources of inspiration today... all about it & some daily news blogged here ~
Enjoy! : )

No walk with Bonny early this morning due to the overnight freezing temperatures and potential icy lanes.
After breakfast I got started with transferring some old Hi8 video tapes from my father-in-law's video camera. We are not sure what is on them but we don't want to throw them away. I had purchased a conversion piece of equipment many years ago for him to do the same, but he never did. So, not surprisingly, the kit is now so old it won't work with modern computers and software. I tried all sorts of combinations of cables, TV's, older laptops and so on to no avail. I ended up doing some online research and have ordered a new piece of kit that will hopefully convert the video ok.
Later in the afternoon, I took Bonny for her usual walk. I bumped into our Lengthsman who is installing the speed indicating device in the village. He also told me that the new footbridge is now in place and ready for use. An article has already been penned for the parish magazine!
This winter has brought several inches of snow to Long Island, and much of it has yet to melt as freezing temperatures have been the norm over the past few months. The beaches are snow covered too, and the white stuff is hiding the sands of summer.
Shown here is a sunset view along the beach at Robert Moses State Park. This Atlantic Ocean beach is found on the southern coast of Long Island, just west of the Fire Island lighthouse.

The spring thaw has begun. Above freezing temperature during the day triggers melting of the winter snowpack, and water runs everywhere.

Maidan Nezalezhnosti (Ukrainian: Майдан Незалежності, literally: Independence Square), Kiev, Ukraine.
A huge artificial 'New Year tree' in central Kiev has become.a symbol of anti-government resistance.
The 'tree' is festooned with a poster of jailed opposition leader Yulia Tymoshenko and scrawled with graffiti attacking President Viktor Yanukovich.
The Euromaidan (Ukrainian: Євромайдан, Yevromaidan, literally "Eurosquare") is a wave of ongoing demonstrations and civil unrest in Ukraine, which began on the night of 21 November 2013 with public protests demanding closer European integration. The scope of the protests has since evolved, with many calls for the resignation of President Viktor Yanukovych and his government. Many protesters joined because of the violent dispersal of protesters on 30 November and "a will to change life in Ukraine". By 25 January 2014, the protests had been fueled by the perception of widespread government corruption, abuse of power, and violation of human rights in Ukraine.
The demonstrations began on the night of 21 November 2013, when spontaneous protests erupted in the capital, Kiev, after the Ukrainian government suspended preparations for signing an Association Agreement and a Free Trade Agreement with the European Union, in favor of closer economic dependence on Russia. After a few days of demonstrations an increasing number of university students joined the protests.
Despite so far unmet demands to renew Ukraine-EU integration, the Euromaidan has been repeatedly characterized as an event of major political symbolism for the European Union itself, particularly as "the largest ever pro-European rally in history"
The protests are ongoing despite heavy police presence, regularly sub-freezing temperatures, and snow.
According to a January poll, 45% of Ukrainians supported the protests, and 48% of Ukrainians disapproved of Euromaidan.

Sure, I do not like the winter and the freezing temperatures. But in this case, the frozen lake shortened the way to the old garrison. How convenient. =)
So this morning I decided to take up the {CarLee} challenge and attempt a sunrise... In below freezing conditions I might add.... So after 45mins of finger freezing temperatures I managed to actually press the shutter release and got a few shots... A few more may follow in the forthcoming weeks.... From THIS morning I might add, I'm not getting up early again... ;)
At the ghost town of Jericho, UT in the below freezing temperatures, the West Colton to Ogden manifest passes by the abandoned sheep corals.
One last shot in this series. - the afterglow which lit up the bottom of the clouds like a magnificent horizontal rainbow across an evening African savannah sky. Of course my imagination was catapulted back to reality by the loss of feeling in my fingertips from well below freezing temperatures.
Echinocereus comes in many varieties all of different colors, shapes, and sizes. Echinocereus subinermis are the more globular varieties with flowers that range widely from pink and white to grayish-blue and yellow. They are native to the Southwest, including Texas, New Mexico, and Mexico. Some grow at fairly high elevations, where they survive freezing temperatures. All have showy flowers in spring to early summer; and fleshy fruit that is edible in some species.
This was shot at dawn from Fort Lee Historic Park. I used a Lee 10-stop Big Stopper filter and a Lee 3-stop soft gradient filter. It was roughly a 2-minute exposure.
I was so lucky to have had the clouds moving in the same direction as my composition. Made the hour or so out in the below-freezing temperatures worth it.

"At the heart of this program is a unique, low-impact sustainable boat that will be among the most environmentally friendly and technologically advanced fishing vessels in the world. This innovative “green” boat is being specifically developed for the Alaska cod hook-and-line fishery. "

"This longliner is specifically developed for the Alaskan cod fishery and is designed by Skipsteknisk AS in Norway. This new ST 155L design has a moon pool in the center line for one fish to be caught at a time through the internal haul station, which is a first in the United States. The vessel will efficiently utilize proteins onboard- the fish wastage that is commonly ground up and discharged overboard. The internal haul station allows for the release of non-target species, as well as the crew to accomplish their work inside the boat without being exposed to rough seas or freezing temperatures and with no more risk of falling overboard during hauling."

After another week of freezing temperatures (windchill of -40oC for a couple of days) it turned warm today so I dragged my husband to Elk Island for a couple of hours of enjoying sunshine and fresh air. And boy! I needed it!!
Last of the Lake Superior fast ice- -about 100 km north of Sault Ste. Marie- -Kilometer 1148, Ontario Highway 17.
This pressure is about 5-6 meters thick as of April 1.
Fast ice is an extensive unbroken sheet of ice that is “fastened” to the shoreline or shoals; the ice forms from freezing temperatures (air and water), waves, drift ice, and snowfall.
This sheltered bay, on eastern Lake Superior, is part part of the Mamainse Point Formation: an area of the Midcontinent Rift System characterized by Precambrian (Mesoproterozic) volcanic activity over a billion years ago.
This. This right here is the reason we woke up so early, braved near-freezing temperatures, dodged other photographers and cursed the ducks until our voices were hoarse. In my mind, I had about 4 photos I *had* to take on this trip. This was number 3, and I love how it came out.
Name of rock as titled, although not evident in image, conditions were bitter as I had to endure freezing temperatures & near sustained windchill gust of up to 35mph. Waited patiently between gust just so I'd have the branches staying still to grab a shot, captured in Capitol Reef National Park.
Snow yesterday and windy with below freezing temperatures today. Clearly no on remembered to tell Spring that Winter was over...
Tulips from earlier this morning at the Lyman Conservatory. Today is the last day of the Spring Bulb Show there. One of the most beautiful shows in recent years and it's been packed every day. Congratulations everyone, wonderful work! :)
while I didn't withstand the freezing temperature for long, I did a quick walk around the lighthouse and managed to snap a few shots! It was SO COLD... -22 and with the wind it made it feel 100 times worse!

Nice to see that I wasn't the only one mad enough to be out in the freezing temperatures, it appears all good fisherman have a van!

Candid eye contact street photography from Glasgow, Scotland. Captured in below freezing temperatures with freezing fog obscuring the background - stay warm everyone!
I'm back from vacation to Oregon and have many new images to share. The conditions were perfect for colorful sunsets during the visit, mostly clear skies during the day with some cloud cover in the evenings. The temperatures were quite mild for February as well, making my return home to below freezing temperatures an adjustment. I thought I would start off with a Winter image of Crater Lake. The colors there were very nice as the light faded into dusk. It was peaceful having the place mostly to myself this time too, just the way I like it. ;-) I have some serious catching up to do on Flickr and hope to get around to visiting all of my contacts work as soon as possible. Thanks for your continued views and support, it'a always appreciated!
The freezing temperatures in Pine Creek Canyon in Zion provided endless opportunities of exploring small winter scenes in the frozen creek.
It seems mad that only four weeks ago we had heavy snowfall and freezing temperatures, yet in the last week the UK has gone into full summer mode, with temperatures hotter than the Sahara (according to one daily newspaper). This scene looked fantastic to the naked eye, but the transfer of that into a photographic interpretation proved much more of a challenge. I made a number of images and variations of this scene, but this was the only one that I liked.
I haven't had any time to play in the snow this year. So, a quick detour this afternoon was exactly what I needed. I only had a few minutes, so I was pleased to seee these two doing there best to relax in the freezing temperatures. Hopefully, I will be able to get out and about properly this weekend.
It was a bitter cold night in Mount Parnassos, Central Greece. The full moon was gloriously lighting the mountain slopes above us. That partly explains why there aren't so many star trails visible in the sky. The contrast between the deep blue of the night sky and the white - blue of the snow made the waiting in those freezing temperatures worthwhile.
- www.kevin-palmer.com - Wandering around these sand dunes under the Milky Way, it looked like I had stepped into the Sahara Desert. But the freezing temperatures reminded me that I was still in Wyoming. The Killpecker Sand Dunes are actually the largest active dune system in the world outside of the Sahara. But the sand is spread out in many piles across 100 miles. They cross the Continental Divide at elevations over 7,000 feet. This pile was in Seminoe State Park. After shifting sand began covering this road, it had to be rerouted to the west. It was a strange feeling walking deeper into the dunes in the dark, as sand in every direction messed with my depth perception and I couldn't tell if I was going uphill or downhill. Strong winds during the day had cleared the dunes of all tracks left by humans or ATV's. It was a good thing the winds were calm now at 3AM because blowing sand and camera lenses do not go well together.

Thanksgiving morning arrived with a spectacular sunrise for those spending it at Restoule Provincial Park in Ontario.
The leaves are just gorgeous in this area right now, but with the below freezing temperatures at night, their showing will be short lived.
The distinctly different colours in the sky are a result of two seperate cloud banks. The orange/pink layer in the background was catching the sun as it was rising, while the dark blue clouds were much lower in the sky, and were moving across the sky at a good pace.
Wishing all of my Canadian Contacts, a great Thanksgiving, and thanks to all of my contacts for your continued comments and suggestions. They are greatly appreciated.

One of my all-time favorite Batten Kill chases was on December 28, 2010. During the warmer months, the Batten Kill typically leaves an engine at Cargill near Greenwich Junction, or near Eagle Bridge. During the winter, however, the engine is kept in the enginehouse in Greenwich due to freezing temperatures. This affords the opportunity to photograph the seldom-used section of track between Greenwich and Cargill. One of the most photogenic sections of that line is along Skellie Road. In this going-away shot, Batten Kill Alco RS-3 #605 heads for Cargill to begin switching before making a trip to Eagle Bridge.
And a daytime shot from SPIKE just before the sun started setting; looking back toward the Grand Haven channel.
It struck me how fast the ice had disappeared; following just a few days of (barely) above freezing temperatures.
There is a nice viewing area along the Rim Trail at El Tovar Lodge. There were quite a few people there despite the freezing temperatures. This view was taken just moments after the official sunrise time and the sun is just beginning to warm the peaks in the canyon.
The weather here in Maine has been ever changing this winter. We have had above freezing temperatures and then they have plummeted to extremely frigid bone numbing temperatures. Last week the temperatures rose again to the mid 50's F or about 12-14 Celsius with torrential downpours.
The ice on the rivers started to break up and flow towards the sea. I saw a video of this river and it was nothing but huge ice cakes flowing downriver. I knew that there would be some left along the shore and decided it might be a great place to get a shot of Ralph for the group this week.
Ralph does not like getting his picture taken, but he is very good about getting up on things if I ask. I can then take his leash off of him and he will reluctantly pose for me. He can move around but knows to stay on the pedestal until he is released. Such a good boy.
We had another few very cold days, so I had another go at photographing frozen bubbles. I like the feather-like crystals in this one. Hopefully the coldest days are behind us though!
With a decent weather forecast for Saturday morning I decided to explore the Durham coast, an area I've not photographed before. The low winter sun was worth braving the freezing temperatures for, and with a number of freight workings and ECML diversions there was plenty of traffic on the line to make the trip worthwhile.

A keen 1st Officer gives the cockpit windows a freshen up during aircraft turnaround in the below freezing temperatures on F-HNCO Airbus A321-251N (MSN 9131) La Compagnie at Glasgow EGPF/GLA on 2nd January 2021. The aircraft was picking up Glasgow Celtic football team to Dubai.
Leeds Liverpool Canal near Hall Lane ,Maghull, Merseyside, UK on 18th December 2010.
Taken around 09.00hrs. Temperature -4 Degrees C.
The heavy snow overnight made for a festive photo opportunity early the next morning for those who were brave enough !
This was the first day of freezing temperatures which continued for 10 days in Merseyside, UK over the Christmas Holidays in 2010.
During this period some of the coldest temperatures on record for this region were experienced.
On the coldest night of the Holidays,the temperature fell to -17.5 degrees C which felt much more Siberia than Sefton !

Fox sparrow eating seed in the feeding area cleared of the deep snow. Home, Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada. 22 April 2023
The snow was all gone but a sudden snowstorm brought over a foot of snow on the 18th and 19th of April. Here is what I wrote on FB: 'I checked the live bird migration map this morning and weather conditions. Seems like it snowed at least from S. Dakota to here. I also looked at maps to try to figure out the bird radar locations.
In spite of the wintry conditions, there was a large number of birds that left the area of Aberdeen, SD (where there is a big wildlife refuge) around 10 pm, and went generally NW, a bit over Bismark but mostly Minot, where activity peaked around 2- 3 am , 4 to 5 hours later to slowly disappear over the border into SK. I think the birds have to be strong flyers, likely cranes or waterfowl, but I am puzzled as to why they would migrate in a snowstorm with the ground covered with snow and freezing temperatures. It's not like they will have an easy time of finding open water and food when they get here....'
For that matter, the night before there was certainly a large migration of Fox Sparrows and Juncos as I had 3 fox Sparrows in my yard and people seem to have reported lots around Regina. We even had an Orange-crowed Warbler. We also had 4 Yellow-rumped warblers the day before.
I get that it's the right time of year and the winds are suitable but am surprised that the birds are not apparenlty being deterred by the weather. Well, the snow started melting on the 21st but in the morning the ground was still 100 % snow cover. On the 21st, open patches were visible at the bse of some trees and under spruce Much more open by the end fo the afternoon with the street 98 % clear. I must have been worried for nothing. Even the Yellow-rumps nd RCKI seem to be ok.
This man-made wall of water is four stories high and diverts water from a tributary of the Deschutes River, just minutes away from downtown Bend. It is not easily accessible, and I ended up walking about 300 yards atop a slippery water flume to get to this secluded spot. A cautionary warning to those who might be tempted to venture here, this area appears to be a gathering and sleeping place for Bend's homeless and transient population. The freezing temperatures kept people away this morning, but there is evidence of a number of people calling this area home. For safety reasons I will not be going back.

Whiskey Creek has stayed open all winter because of the mild temperatures this year. I woke up this morning to -10F (-23C) with a wind chill of -32F (-36C). Above freezing temperatures will return on Sunday. The Department of Natural Resources have closed many ramps going onto lakes as they have had so many calls for rescuing people who have went through the ice with their vehicles.
