Footprints in the Snow
It was great, I made the first footprints in the snow today, a good feeling, lots of tracks to diagnose! I put a couple of pics as below. This one is like frozen feet!

Comments always welcome.

Bill, These are great. I prefer the simple ones, the goose on the ice and the rocks with ice. The color in the latter is stunning. Nice work.

These are great Bill, I'm glad you got out to explore. I really like the Goose on Ice shot, and the one posted above!.

Very cool shot above Bill and a very nice find. I also like the goose a lot.

Now that is an unusual shot... nicely captured. I think it's really interesting how the reflection of the ice looks so different... like the surface ice has polarized the reflection, so the "feet" don't look white, but green, like you're seeing inside them. Neat!

Very nice shots, Bill. It's good to be the first with footprints, so many composition possibilities than after everyone has left theirs.

I love those flying junco shots, they are very tough to get in flight because of their quickness and small size. And the frozen feet are hilarious, what a unique ice formation.

Nice shot. They really do look like frozen feet.
