These leading lines created by freezing conditions and snowdrift just under the surface of a frozen lakeshore provide the perfect foreground to an explosive display of aurora in the sky. With wind chill, the temperature was near -15F at night.
Admit it: we all eventually just kept on doing this to our opponents when the computer was unbeatable.
Although there has been many subzero nights (this morning the temperature was - 8 °C) these long-legged insects still fly in afternoon sunlight.

A cold MN winter is starting to take its toll. Another subzero (-11f) start. This poor girl descends through the heavy fog into a patch of open water on the Mississippi hoping for a sunrise morsel.

The local was a worthy subject for a few more sets. What the line between Chippewa Falls and Eau Claire lacks in scenery it makes up for in history. At one time there were 4 rail lines between these cities, 3 of them running parallel through Lake Hallie.
Just to the right is the grade of the Soo Line Eau Claire branch, now a trail. It was here first, built by the Chippewa Falls & Western in 1873 to connect to an Omaha Road predecessor at Eau Claire. CF&W would be an outlet to the west for the Wisconsin Central when they built from Abbotsford to Chippewa Falls.
The Omaha had built across the river at Chippewa Falls in 1881 and northerly from there. By 1883 they were no longer satisfied with relying on a WC-controlled CF&W and built their own line, the Eau Claire & Chippewa Falls Railway parallel to the CF&W. This is the present-day Chippewa Falls Sub that we see LTS82 utilizing.
Just to the left of the train is the overgrown right-of-way of the Chippewa Valley Electric Railroad, a trolley line abandoned in 1926. It is tough to distinguish, apart from the modern powerline following the right-of-way.
Separate from this "triple track" was the Milwaukee Road's Chippewa Valley & Superior that instead followed the winding course of the Chippewa River just to the west, a longer, less efficient routing that was also the first abandoned when they acquired trackage rights over the WC between Eau Claire and Chippewa Falls in the late nineteen teens.

A number of photographers I follow on Flickr have been posting some beautiful frozen bubble pictures, inspiring me to give it a try...
Yesterday, I decided to try and shoot in La Hague, at sunset.
Unfortunately, the sky got suddenly very grey, and it began to rain... I decided to try to go anyway. After 15 minutes, the sky became clear again, and I finally arrived where I wanted: La baie d'Ecalgrain, a wonderful place.
The wind was so cold that after 30 minutes, I had to go back home: my fingers were so numb that I couldn't change the settings on my camera.
I wish you all a wonderful evening, I hope you get all the presents you asked for, I hope Santa can manage !! ;o)
GL106 (Subzero), operated by Espee Railroad Services and in the Chicago Freight Car Leasing colours, stabled on the siding near the silos at Ardlethan, New South Wales, Australia.
Judging by the amount of Parrots & Galahs feeding besides the tracks I'd say there had been a few grain train movements during the day!
Subzero temperatures have created a lovely winter sight at RSPB Greylake. The early morning sun provides the warm yellow glow.

Normally it is trains, cars, buildings or nature...In this case nature attacked. For those in other parts of the country and the world who are 'prepared to deal with ice and snow on a regular basis for extended periods, this is likely not a crisis. Here, the subzero for several days is causing untold troubles, from wrecks to power outages. The perfect storm as it were; rain to was the brine off the roads, freezing rain, followed by sleet, then snow. All of the cars resemble this one...frozen rain and sleet.
"The Iceman Kometh!"
Although I built magnifigures of Raiden and Scorpion in 2016, I recently decided to build some more based on my old concepts. Here we see the cheapest character in the franchise: Sub-Zero. When I was young, I was unable to beat the SEGA Genesis version with any character except Sub-Zero -- as my strategy was to constantly freeze and uppercut the opponent into the corner.
The icy signature of record-breaking freezing temperatures last night. For this largely tropical region, it is a Big Deal.
