Description On the eve of natures winter fury leaving everything encased in ice, I was inspired by the sunset. It was captivating as the vivid sunset cast light through the ice and over this local Maryland Dairy farm.

I love the colors and the shimmer it added. ENJOY.


here are some other pix from this same days shoot:

I totally understand that feeling. I love seeing something amazing like that and being able to capture it. I recall running into an open field during a thunderstorm to capture the most amazing double rainbow

Photography is more than taking a picture thats for sure.

BINGO! a picture is what happens when someone pushes a camera button. Photography is where the artist adds his magic

For the most part, I keep my camera in a Tamarac velocity bag with extra battery and 2 extra cards for just that reason.

Wow... this is such a beautiful shot! I've looked at the other shots from that day,too, but I like this one best. It has that nice warm feeling to it... although it shows ice, quite a contrast there. What I love most about it is the way the sun reflects over and over in all the little icicles - I just can't stop looking at it. I'd love to have this as a wallpaper or something Great work and thanks so much for sharing

such a kind comment! thank you so much for taking the time to tell me.

I must say that is one of my favs from that day also. I love the glaze coat over the plants. I was so excited to shoot what I was seeing that day! It was gone the next day.

Here is one of my other favs from that day [link]

Danke schon!
