I managed to take a walk today, a day a bit 'more "warm" than the previous ones.
I did not have the "official" camera with me because I wanted to be free of weight and photographic obligations.
I wanted to enjoy the walk and I found myself, instead, taking a lot of photos of the fascinating river and the path in winter clothes.
This small nikon compact, now dated, is able to capture the "mood" of the environment, probably better than the other, has no claims in detail, all that immortal is what I needed today- the essence of the river in winter, in its apparent calm, in the dull colors, in the bony trees and in the total absence of living beings of all kinds....
Fabrizio De André - Le acciughe fanno il pallone (Live)
The chosen music has nothing to do with the photo, but is a tribute to De André in the twenty years since his death and a tribute to my father on his birthday ....

A winter full moon night in Banff national park after a severe snow storm. There are still open water sections on the lake and the ice is thin. This is my first perspective blending artwork, so don't be surprised about the size of the moon, cause it is what your eyes can see instead of what the camera can capture.
This winter seems to be very heavy on images of highways from me. I have already shot this place a few times, but never in winter. Since winters seem to get warmer and with less snow with each year, after new snow has covered the mountains I rushed to capture Hemus Highway. Unfortunately, there was not as much snow as I anticipated, so I might return to this place one more time :)

There is a privacy about it which no other season gives you. . . In spring,
summer and fall people sort of have an open season on each other;
only in the winter, in the country, can you have longer, quiet stretches
when you can savor belonging to yourself.

Yes, I am still enjoying the snow! :D

This is from winter 2014 in the southern part of Oregon. Hadn't meant to post this tonight, but accidentally uploaded in Public, so gonna go with it. At home until Monday, so will try to catch up while home.
Below, please see the photo of the plant I used for this image. Should have been well on its way to the compost pile by now. :)

MUST VIEWED LARGE!!
Same place and area as the previous posting but without Mark ( code.dude ) standing there and at a lower perspective, I had to take two images with different exposures because of the hight contrasts one of the sky and one of the ground and merged them together in PS! No filters used!
The same location and a different day. The frost came and made a fog on the water. The trees, the ducks and the lights completed the atmosphere of the tale, a winter tale....
Thank you for all your comments and favs, my friends.
Inspired by another Flickr friend “wwguitarman” www.flickr.com/photos/78354893@N08/ --- who has posted several beautiful red ranches winter scenes along mountain ranges I just had to throw out a red farm winter scene from Iowa.
Also has a windmill for Happy Windmill Wednesday! (HWW)
