It was another chilly morning, here in Truckee, California. The snow forecasts lately have been very wrong. We've gotten a little hear and there, but nowhere near the amounts that were predicted. The temperature forecasts have been more accurate, and that means more icicle weather!
I took a little walk across the street to Donner Lake, to see what I could see this morning. This little stream was running pretty hard, splashing, and creating some beautiful icicles. Many photos were shot, but this one caught my eye. I loved the cool tones of the ice in the shadows contrasting with the warm tones of the sunlight on the rock. What do you think? It's not a big dynamic landscape scene, but I really like these little looks at nature being beautiful on a smaller scale.
The cluster of icicles can be seen on the far right.
Cold but happy photographer!
Yes, I'm always trying to sell more prints... which are available for ordering on my website HERE.
Thank you for looking and I hope you are all having a great weekend!

Oh so nice you are enjoying the cold...and photographing it! :)
I was... Although it was 4°F this morning. And the old place I'm living at now is lacking proper insulation. Brrr, outside and inside. Looking forward to summer! Hope all is well with you.
Nice augmented reality shot there at the end 😉 detail photos are fun. Nice shot 👍
Thank you! My new website has a feature that automatically makes those room images for me. It's pretty cool!
This is a special season for those who love such pictures, beautiful pictures can be taken in this season.
Indeed they can! Although, it's the time of year now where I am starting to feel like I am ready for summer...
