I can feel it blowing. Really great effect, Lorraine. It's one of those days where you have to chase after your runaway hat.

Good use of that filter Lorraine. But why make cold look even colder? Ha-ha!

Interesting processing and nice coloring. Really has that hand-tinted feel of 19th century photos.

Ah les plaisirs de l'hiver... qu'on l'aime ou pas, c'est lui qui nous définit pour une bonne part!

Ron from Saint Louis, United States
Lorraine, you've taken your visitors from the warm sky of "Sunrest" to this bone-chilling scene. But that is the nature of winter (I suspect even more so in your part of the continent than in mine), and I love it for that very reason. Thanks.

@Ron: Oh what a neat message, thanks a lot Ron!
