This is what you can stumble upon during walks in the Winter. A creek (imagine me saying it like “crick”) of ice! This was the only angle I could capture the image, otherwise my camera and I would have went for a dip.

Last night was truly remarkable. I was processing a few images & also checking on Facebook when I read a post talking about the northern lights. At first, I thought nothing of it.

My usual ‘hot spots’ were completely underwater, so I walked around for a good hour until I stumbled upon this scene. I placed the camera and myself on a large, flat slab of limestone and began shooting. After many composition adjustments, the image above was finally created and I was satisfied.
