I just love these colours! That dark sky and how is reflects in the water. The contrasts of colours and the details that come to life. Gorgeous image!

Love the quiet feeling here, as if icy weather could be sweet too, depends on how you see things... under that light and in that wonderful set, life seems serene... Love the idea too !

A wonderful photograph, a sense of defiance against the harsh weather. Superbly processed and presented.

Alivia from Saint-Etienne, France

les teintes dorées du soleil sur les canards, le paysage figé de glace, une incroyable atmosphère de quiétude figée de froid pourtant, une composition hivernale qui ressemble à un tableau.

An excellent vision of these wild critters waiting for the ice to melt. Amazing processing as always.

Simply exquisite. Can't explain why, but I thought of Currier & Ives when I first looked at this picture.

Awesome colors. The contrast between the cold colors of the sky and lake and the warmer colors of the trees. Great composition.
