Michael Skorulski from Cigel, Slovakia
Excellent selective color, Lorraine. She's trudging toward the light and color of spring. It's a slog but she'll make it fine.

Excellent image of life in frozen Canada, the weak light makes it interesting... but bare legs in that cold... Camadians must be very hardy folk!

I love you angle on this shot; were you lying in the middle of the road to get it? :D
The light of spring is ahead of her . . . and you, my friend.
