I want to sit right there in the sun, next to the trees facing the creek...I can almost taste how good that would feel...

Very pretty! It looks just like an area nearby here, called Lost Nation. Thank you for stopping by the other day!

Just a gorgeous scene! I love how that big thick white line runs into the background! Love the light and shadows you captured too! Excellent!

Wow, what a suprising scene, the way the trail of ice moves through the trees along the creek, amazing.

@Richard_Irwin: Thanks, Richard. We had some single digit temperatures and no snow. This creek is very shallow and always freezes!

Hi Betty, This is a great shot. You did a nice job capturing it. Where abouts is this?

@Gary: Hi Gary. This is actually just across the Belvidere bridge over the Delaware River in PA. I was coming back from my Dad's. This creek is beautiful in any season. Last Sunday I had to stop - the light and the ice and the shadows were perfect!
@Porcsin: Thank you.
