These are great. Are these straight out of the camera or did you have a go at Aperture?

Cool shots. Actually like the #2 looking down the barrel! Try Yak traks, They will work wonders on ice!

Thanks Joel - yeah this has been a strange year - ice is usually not that big a problem. With recent temps above freezing and all the snow we had before that, then back to cold temp - everywhere is icy. We may actually get some of those.

Thanks Bob just making sure you don't forget what the snow and a sunrise looks like.

quick stroll out this morning
That's you still up and about in the middle of the night again, see not even the suns up yet.

Great shot nevertheless.

More excellence in shooting! Superb shooting and processing, but we already know that before we even open one of your threads!
Even if I could.......and I could not match your abilities......you would never find me out that early or in anyplace that cold! Fair weather Rupert...that's me!
Regards!
