@Craiger: Thanks always Craiger :)
I saw the title and looked directly into the frozen water...then I adjusted my focus!So...the canoes are taking a long nap under their coats of snow...but they are in an embrace and don't feel the cold, for sure! I envy you the snow....wish we had some,too! It would most certainly change the view outside the windows. For the time being everything looks grey and drab! Yes...and keep away from the water, it doesn't look that hard frozen! Gabriela

@Japanalia: lol Thanks Gabriela, no fear, I'm Canadian, I know my ice ;) And stay hopeful, I predict tons of snow coming your way in a few days ;)
I like the atmosphere

@eddy: I appreciate that, thanks a lot Eddy :)
Very nice composition, Lorraine. Looks like there's a little bit of melt? Love the reflection in the ice.

@Betty: thanks a lot Betty, the weather is changing again hitting us back with a vengeance (of ice pellets, snow and freezing rain) lol
Lorraine, it may be melting but it still looks like it's a chilly day to go canoeing. Lol. Nice photo of the conditions that day.

@Janice Thomson: Thanks a lot Janice, don't tell anyone, whispers, but I scanned it, it's were my old cottage was when I was married, so we're talking, many, many years ago...still it's lovely isn't it? Don't have it anymore, sigh...
The color tone you've chosen makes me not to feel cold in spite of snowy atmosphere. Very well done.

@Reza: I'm glad you can feel the warmth Reza, thanks a lot :)
Nice! This evokes the summer gone by and the winter we (you) are in. The little burst of color from the canoe in the otherwise monochromatic image is really nice. Nice composition tobooot! well done.

@MontereyJohn: Very nice of you to say so lol Thanks a lot John :)
Firstly Lorraine I have to say you have posted some STUNNING photos over the past few days! I'm glad I looked back :) This is no exception, such a beautiful shot.
I've got my fingers crossed that I should be back Monday, Hubby hurt his back last week! he went back to work today soooo I hope this is the end of all our ills for this year. :)

@kurt: I appreciate your visit Kurt, thanks a lot :)
Wow, that is heaps of snow, a good alternative perspective, of the not-so-pretty side of snow. Somehow, I feel with the two canoes.... Hopefully they’ll still be well whole and strong to go out happily on the water again when warmer and brighter days are here again. :)
12 Jan 2008 6:17pm
@Rebecca: Thanks a lot Rebecca, I happen to know that the canoes are doing marvelously ;) lol thanks sweetie!
I have returned to this image several times over the last few days because it interests me so. It's like a story is sleeping here with the canoes waiting spring to awaken. A haunting image.

@GJC: that's a lovely compliment, thanks GJC :)
too cold for canoeing... but I'm up for it!

@clarence: That's right Clarence, you have to be tough, Canadian Tough OR Texan Tough lol thanks a lot :)
Beautiful! Two in winter sleep, suggesting our hope that once the weather will be sunny and the banks green. Yet very peaceful, totally different from yesterday.
