This was taken on Jan 30 on the shores of Lake Ontario. A very rare site to see such calm at this time of the year. Thanks for taking the time to stop by to take a look.

Your thoughts and comments are welcome as always.

Nikon D5000
f/5.3
1/125 sec
ISO-200

This is great use of the light Mark, it adds nice detail to the snow and lighthouse. Well done.

Oh, that is some sweet light! And it contrasts beautifully with the moody, wintry blues. Of course the lighthouse is killer, too.

Thanks very much for the congrats and thanks to those involved in the selection process. I have to say that while I'm extremely happy about the EP it is somewhat humbling to be selected over some of the other incredible images that have been posted on this website. I'd like to say thanks to Mike Moats for putting me onto this website. What a great learning tool this has been and no doubt will continue to be. :biggrin:
