Winter’s magic transforms the countryside into a serene masterpiece, and this stunning blue barn in Fife Lake is the perfect centerpiece. Captured after a fresh December snowfall, the scene exudes rustic charm and peaceful stillness. Growing up here in this area, I’ve always loved how the snowy landscapes create a timeless beauty. ❄️
from last winter...this was one of the first times out with my D200, and I was disappointed with the performance of the battery in very cold conditions ( -25 C )...now I head out with a couple of spares in a pocket near my body to keep them warm. At this temperature, battery power plummets very quickly--I almost drained a battery in under an hour. It was also one of my first tries with an ND grad filter...I used a cokin 2-stop soft filter mounted on the wide-angle version of the P holder...the edges of which were visible at 12mm on the Tokina 12-24mm lens.
I think this image demonstrates the classic landscape principle of using lines to draw the eye into the distance
Winter Icing
There is something about trees that as a photographer attracts me more than any other subject. It is hard to explain what it is, or why certain ones appeal more than others, but they do:) especially when they are dressed in their winter clothing.
The shapes of this one really drew my attention and made me turn around and come back to get a photograph, hoping you can see why;)

One hundred and two.This bus runs from Kamensk-Uralsky to the village of Sosnovskoye. I've wanted to take a picture like this for a long time, and I even studied the schedule to watch it, but somehow I couldn't catch it. During the winter holidays I was returning by car from Kamensk and met him on the road. Then there was a little chase and an ambush at the bus stop. I'm lucky this time.
Сто второй. Этот автобус ходит из Каменска-Уральского в село Сосновское. Я давно хотел сделать такой снимок, и даже изучал расписание, чтобы подкараулить его, но как-то мне не удавалось его поймать. В зимние каникулы я возвращался на машине из Каменска, и встретил его на дороге. Далее была небольшая погоня и засада на остановке. На этот раз мне повезло.
The winter aconite are always the first out here in Vienna. They are about a week earlier than last year. Somehow I prefer them in black and white.
Die Winterlinge sind die ersten Blumen hier in Wien. Dieses Jahr sind sie ein Woche früher dran als letztes. Mir gefallen sie in Schwarz-Weiß besser als in Farbe.
shot in port de pollenca in winter whilst trying the voigtländer nokton 75mm f/1.5 glass on the leica sl2-s. as there is no 6bit communication the value for aperture should be wrong. the image is nearly not edited and shows the fascinating look of this amazing glass!
Winter - beautiful, stark, stoic winter - is the season of "revealment," of graphic exposure, and nowhere is the phenomena more grand than above, in the sky, in skeins of trunk and branch!

I find winter magical. In other seasons wildlife can be difficult to find one can think to themselves "there isn't any wildlife around here". However, in the winter you see all the tracks in the snow and realize just how much there is around you. When one sees all the activity and how many different species might be in an area you begin to realize just how important that environment is to the survival of those species.
Thanks to a flicker friend I now know they are on the threatened list. Feel lucky to have seen so many at once.
I had a stroll over Mam Tor and onto the Great Ridge for a nice winter walk. It was full on winter conditions and not much visibility to be fair. I wasn’t expecting much in respect of nice light or great photography opportunities.
But as I always carry my camera I took a few shots anyway.
This is a photo of the view out my window, taken with a one second exposure while intentionally moving the camera vertically, which conveys the essence of the winter landscape. Plato had the thought that the material world of observable phenomena is a manifestation of a more fundamental level of essence forms. In Hindu cosmology, the material world sits on the back of a turtle. What's below the turtle? It's turtles all the way down.
The way this image is displayed on my computer monitor, when I stand up and look at it from above, a neat optical illusion occurs. The light and dark areas in the image become reversed.
The River Tamar forms the boundary between Cornwall and Devon. Rising only 4 miles from Bude and the Atlantic Ocean, the it flows south, slowly at first, for nearly 50 miles to the English Channel. In its middle reaches, the River Tamar winds its way through steep wooded country.
This is also an area strewn with the relics of two centuries of mining and is part of Cornwall's and West Devon's World Heritage Site. On the Cornish side is Cotehele Quay, once a busy port on which the local community depended.
During the summer we complain and want winter to hurry up and get here. During the winter, we complain and want the summer to hurry up and get here. I, myself, love the winter. It's like the freshest time of the year. Everything gets a cleaning. Waking up in the morning. Putting on my new Jessy Jacket from Stormcrow Design's that I purchased from Fi*Friday's and stepping outside in the fresh air. Watching the snow come down, being all warm and cozy in my Jessy Jacket is the best feeling in the world. Ladies, if you're looking for a cozy warm winter jacket, make sure you hit up Fi*Friday's and stop by the Stormcrow Design's booth!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Happy shopping ladies! ☺

Feels like winter, a group of ponies standing in a cold snowy misty field. Image taken at Bowscar near Penrith, last sunday during a spell of winter weather.
A tributary of the Chena River is frozen over and fog hangs in the air. Spruce trees and dying grasses add color to the frozen scene. The ice has vent holes from the still unfrozen water below.
Winter in Alaska is a beautiful time of year. Most of the visitors have left and the locals remain. It is a time of quiet, a time of being alone. Rarely does anyone wander off the roads during winter, so when you get off the road, it is just you and the animals and the scenery.
As I have gotten older, the winter treks have become fewer. My wife and I do get out when we can but I have to be honest, it is not as much as before in our younger years. Old age isn't for the weak for sure. We both hope to be able to get out and enjoy both winter and the warmer months for years to come, just won't be as long and as often as when we were younger.
The clouds above the tombolo on Lake Superior look like rays spreading across the sky. Winter, Cook County, Minnesota.
Shot with a 3-stop nd grad and a 10-stop Singh-Ray Mor-Slo filter. Love this filter!

This is a sunset view on the Lake Arni, a small lake from the Uri district in swizterland.
Last summer, I already visited this place, but I wasn't really inspired.
But in winter the landscape is totally different and much more interesting with a lot more of cool foregrounds to ehance the compositions.
As I type this, it is chucking it down with rain and blowing a gale, in complete contrast to 7:21 this morning when a frost had settled across the land and not a cloud hardly to be seen. Being a photographer, you tend to tut when there are no clouds as the sun is usually just a glaring ball, but this morning there was a little bit of haze, enough to soften the light and cause a wonderful orange hue to colour the sky and give a warmth to the landscape.
Taken at Wittenham Clumps, South Oxfordshire.
I photographed this gorgeous privately owned cabin two years ago on a calm autumn evening. I've been wanting to shoot this scene in all four seasons, but had no luck last winter in getting the perfect conditions I had in mind for a photograph. By perfect, I mean a wet snow sticking to tree branches, an unfrozen pond surface and a nice reflection with little or no wind. Well, this past week I had two of the three and almost the third. I achieved a nice reflection, but not quite the calm surface I was hoping for.... but good enough I guess. Now all I have left is a nice spring shot when the leaves are just starting to pop, which should give me a two or three week window and then a summer shot to finish things off. Wish me luck!
