Good morning

It had been a loooong time since I could grab my camera and go out to somewhere for just taking pictures. Life has suddenly become incredibly busy. However, found some time to go out to Sprague lake today morning.
Hope you all are having a nice weekend.
Provided a larger version as well.
Thanks again for your c&c.

Soubhik, it appears like it was very windy, based on the interesting patch of open water. The sky's color reflected off the ice is really nice. I am not finding the bent tree as an attractive foreground element though. How long were you away from shooting, as I was down for 2 weeks and missed getting out?

Thanks for the feedback Doug. Yes, it was very very windy ... I last took some pictures when I went to Washington with family for a few days and went to Hoh area, not a good time to go there though as we faced a lot of rain and a snowstorm as well. So, I would say the last time I took some pictures was way back in November when I went to Bosque

Soubhik... keep getting out when you can.. I need to do that too . Background light is spectacular. Is it a hard place to compose pictures of? May be scouting the area before or even looking up the images of the are might help you to come up your own unique takes of the place. Keep them coming ... you image from Krishna Nagar is a masterpiece Image

I disagree with Doug--the tree makes the shot for me; it's quirky, and i like quirky!
