Nice, peaceful shot Scott. It is such a simple image but keeps my interest. Emotionally appealing. Way to communicate and I liked your written message as well. Thanks for sharing.
I'd like to add to the cheers for this stunning and unique beautiful picture. Sure do love the charming tinkling sound of ice shattering on the shore too!
And the current climate in the world can certainly way on oneself if you allow it to do so. I find turning off the TV permanently the best choice I ever made and so much negativity gone.
Thank you all so very much! The positive energy I am getting is helping me through a difficult time right now! May sound silly to some but for me energy is all around us and I feed off of it. Whether it is good or bad. Since there is a lot of negative energy on this earth right now if affects me and it takes a lot of positive energy to combat it. Thank goodness photography is not my only artistic outlet and source of positive energy. Music (acoustic guitar) has now become a major part of my life again. It always has but now getting closer to recording another album. This time I am working with another guitarist and best friend who is on the same page as I and the material we are coming with I feel is unique and refreshing. Without music I think I would lose it! lol

Agreed. Tossed out satellite TV last year. Never again.
Love it Scott...keep those positive vibes and give nobody or anything the power to negate them.
Hey and thanks for reminding me to remember that myself!
Best part about this picture is it was taken with a 40D and an EF-S lens. Goes to show that you don't need a $2000+ camera to catch AWESOME shots. Love this picture. Would look really nice up on my wall
Thank you very much! Getting out in nature is one of my best ways to relieve stress. I need to get out more!
I think many of today's aspiring landscape shooters spend way too much time and money worrying about the latest-widest lens and the latest Lightroon plugin or photoshop tutorial thinking THAT is what landscape photography is all about. For me, it's about the connection with mother nature and the incredible light she can create. And maybe snapping a few photos along the way too.
