Cold Times
The sun was shining, and I thought I might be stuck at home all day, so I decided to see what I might find in the garden... as it happened small icicles that had formed on my guttering had grown somewhat in the past week...
 Underneath the giant one on the left I found this formation of ice. I lay in the snow to take the photo and a gust of wind just happened to blow up some of the powdery snow - captured in the sunlight...  Eventually managed to get out, thanks to a friends 4x4, so headed to a nearby man-made lake to capture sunset. Got a few pictures in the 'golden hour'...   ta, Phil.

Very nice snow images! I really like the last one of the duck and gulls landing on and dealing with the ice.

Phil, what a wonderful set! They're all very well done, but I think my favorites are the second (so unusual!) and the fourth (just love those birds!) Thanks for sharing these with us.

This is a great set - I particularly like the perspective and the lighting in the second.
I have been hearing on the news about the cold weather you have been having, so I am glad you managed to get out and take some pics to share with us.

Number two is my favourite of the set too.
As far as perspective - I paid for that with cold and wet jeans; I should have put my ski trousers on I think.  Thanks again for the kind words, much appreciated.  cheers, Phil.
