The fog hangs thickest over the frozen water in the drainage ditch that runs across the frosty fields on Marton Moor.
The light of the afternoon sun as it's just above the horizon on a very cold day in Lauttasaari, Helsinki.
Recently, I’ve posted several photographs that I have taken at the John R Park Homestead near Kingsville, Ontario. Well I can’t stop! This is from my most recent visit and I’m so glad I got up before the sun to capture this special moment. On this very cold morning (minus 10 celsius or more like minus 25 with the windchill factored in) the wind was gusting from the southwest and since Lake Erie is still not frozen over, the waves were crashing into the shore break wall. The result was ice coatings on everything the spray hit.
View from my window - Having one of those horrible weather days in Toronto - icy roads and sidewalks, accidents, fallen electrical lines, sirens... I won't venture outside and risk a fall!
Silver Creek, in my neighborhood, is gorgeous in the winter because of all the reflections when the water is cold and reflective.

It was an incredible atmosphere on the dune overlooking the big Lake. Just above freezing and the snow clinging everywhere. There was a mist at the shoreline about 25 feet below the dune.
Thank you so much for your visit!
Patea, South Taranaki, NZ
This meat processing plant was established in 1893 as a cannery but converted to frozen meat in 1904. It was bought by the Vestey Group of Liverpool in 1934, a notorious tax dodging enterprise which by then was based in Brazil.
Livestock was railed in, processed, frozen and railed out with the waste dumped directly into the Patea River over which part of the plant was built. At one time it employed over 1000 people, mostly local Maori and was a huge loss to the region when it closed in 1982.
Il has only been partially demolished since its closure over 30 years ago.
This was one of those couple of mornings this winter when we got the really cold weather, -20ºC in Helsinki, and when there was the rare chance to see the "sea smoke" that happens when open water in sea is warmer than the freezing cold air, and when the sea starts to "steam".
Especially spectacular this view is at sunrise time. And if one is lucky enough to come next to decorative ice-covered rocks, then the scenery gets absolutely stunning. So stunning that one can forget about its freezing fingers and toes, and nose that gets numb during about hour in this cold... An hour when one just walks around like enchanted looking at this beauty until finally starting to realize that staying longer one could turn itself into one of those iced rocks. I realized it just before this moment, but it still was possible to walk to the bus stop about 1 km away, crawl in the bus and slowly start to melt...
So luckily I am back here and can post this photo for you. :-)
Another one from yesterday morning when the world looked like a page from a fairytale book. Gisteren ochtend geschoten in het prachtige winter wonderland wat ik nu al mis.
Jenbach is a stream and is located in Bavaria, Germany. At the food of the mountain Wendelstein you can walk along this wild stream. Very seldom it is that cold and a part of this wild stream is frozen.
After days of Arctic outflow weather, Snow and bitter temperatures, the outflow has been defeated by the inflow. We are now in a transition between snow and freezing rain. Heavy rain forecast for all the next week will make snort work of the snow! Here is a branch of a Japanese Maple coated in ice.
