Description ~~~~

The sky lit up the cold sleeping world on this morning in 2005.

After spending many mornings out on Lake Superior in the winter, I've noticed the only sound to break the tranquility is the occasional cracking of the ice ... sometimes close and loud ... and sometimes far off in the distance.

Beautiful as always. I can't get enough of the combination of snow, frost and glowing sunsets - and you, my friend, are an expert in capturing those scenes!

I really admire your style and your works... but I think it's too much< a lot of your shots are VERY similar (not bad just similar) i know that a good artist must choose the best from a lot.. And I think that u ARE one.. So maybe u should slow down a little.. i mean I like u as a photographer and the only minus that u'v got - it's the quantity of similar works. Best wishes.

... photographers are painters with A.D.D.

besides nature shots my gallery includes:

Conceptual
Surreal
Portraits
Wildlife
Architecture
Still Life
Urban and Rural
Human and Nature

to be prolific does not undermine the value of one's work when discussing photography. I take hundreds of photos each month and sift through them later ... often missing a decent shot in the crowd... but most of my gallery includes only 1 or 2 photos from an entire shoot.

If you tire of my work (I post one per day normally) ...or think I post too often, then maybe skip over some of them

i love that echoing ripple effect that cracking ice has... it's like a thousand highstrung wires all being twanged at once.

could you input your camera info into every shot like *gilad does? Id like to learn how to do such shots and hat helps a lot. I would greatly appreciate it. I love the composure of this shot, though I cn never tell if its a single shot exposure or a multiple sec exposure.
