Kafka - What lovely pictures, I feel as if I have been now.
Janine - Your son has definitely an eye for photography, some of his angles, etc., were very picturesque. I am hoping that he uses this skill on photographing his new daugher, too! ;)
Claes - As always, you have entertained us with more of your skill as a photographer. I love the ideas that you have! Great photos! :)
Oh thanks.Quote:

Photos of this lake, etc are awesome, Claes....brrrr....looks cold there.
Now are they a sort of ski skate - photo of three people on the ice?
Never have seen them before this.
My favorites are the amazing ice formations and the branches covered with them. Beautiful photography, as usual.
It was. There is something the pictures cannot convey: wind. It was quite windy, and up north they actually had a storm tonight.Quote:

Fantastic; thanks for the dynamite fireworks! They are not easy to photograph and you captured those perfectly. I love the two photos with the frost and the ropes/wooden dock...outstanding and very textural...I also like the frozen orange thingies(?)...those three are prize-winners!...some of your very best, Claes!
Wonderful pictures, Claes!
Nothing too fancy or artistic here. I took these snapshots, while walking around my snowy neighborhood, the day after the storm (late afternoon). For once, we had a half decent snowstorm - the neighborhood kids loved it! I don't think we have had a snow this nice, for years; these were taken in 03; I figured I better post them, while it is still winter, or I will never get to it....these are just 6 yrs late...better late then never....haha
This first house is my house.

Three that I took from my upstairs window at night; a kind of an experiment and played with the tones later on.

I hope I did not repeat any..if I did forgive me the error.
I don't have any of my photos here - unfortunately, but i have a whole heap on my camera i'll show later.
Nice photos Janine. :) I actually liked the neighborhood kids. They look so wholesome and not the nasty punk types. :)
Thanks, Virgil, did you notice how slanted some of my horizon lines were? I should take my own advice, huh? Yes, those kids now are grown - the photos were actually taken about 6 yrs ago. Nice kids they were - one of my neighbor's grand-kids and their friends. They had a great time that day finally getting to play in the snow. Heard you got an inch or so up your way. Nothing here but frigid :cold: temperatures....brrrr...Quote:
