MrsAmber from West Wickham, United Kingdom
This is a great shot, just the sort I like very much. A sort of something-out-of-nothing shot. Hurray!

@MrsAmber: I like the compliment, thanks a lot mrs.A ;)
Paco Díaz from Palma de Mallorca, Spain
We have to wait the spring to free this from the ice :)
27 Apr 2009 6:57am
@Paco Díaz: Hey Paco, I should go check, it's probably free now, and the ice melted 'cause we've had some really hot days, yay! ;)
ManuelaR from Hainburg (Frankfurt/Main), Germany
I find this take quite misterious! At first, it is hard to tell where the water/ice ends and the rocks begin. Well done!

@ManuelaR: I appreciate that Manuela, thanks a lot :)
@dobbino: I appreciate that Rob, very much :)
@Saeed Rasoulof: thanks very much Saeed :)
Judy from Brooksville, Florida, United States
I'm not exactly sure what I'm looking at, but I like the 'eyes' formed by the knots in the wood, looking back at me! :D

@Judy: Wow, I like how you look lol thanks a lot Judy ;)
Eric Cousineau from Sherwood Park, Canada
I agree with Judy....the dock is enjoying the celebrity status! LOL ;-)

@Eric Cousineau: And that's soooo good, they simly don't get the recognition they deserve lol thanks Eric ;)
Viewfinder from Bradenton, FL, United States
Ouch! I hope the tire and trailer survived the scrape with this rock.

@Viewfinder: That remains to be seen my dear Vf, thanks a lto :)
Kathycalculates from Indianapolis, United States
Someone needs to refloat their dock! And there you were to capture it in a photo! I'll bet there are a lot of nervous cheating couples in your neighborhood! No secret kiss behind the barn when Lorraine is out and about! lol
27 Apr 2009 12:42pm
@Kathycalculates: LOL oh God forgive me If i ever cause anyone harm...would that have anything to do with the movie the boat floats...or something, 'cause I've never seen it, and well your reference to cheating couples has me wondering what other things people do on docks, well maybe they took dips in the cold water to check in their hormones.... lol
Barbara from Florida, United States
You've landed! Like a moon landing and you are peering out the tiny window.
I love it when an image triggers my imagination.
Great play with light and shadows, perfect for B&W.
27 Apr 2009 1:22pm
@Barbara: What a darling you are, thanks a lot!
Nina from Hamburg, Germany
Unusual and very good in b/w... that's really an interesting shot, Lorraine. :)
27 Apr 2009 4:08pm
@Nina: Thanks very much for your kind comment dear Nina :)
@k@: dudu tu penses? lol you're such a babe! merci pour le sourire :)
Bookfool from Mississippi, United States
Tyan's comment made me chuckle. I'm not sure what's going on here, but I like the shot. It made me stop and think.
27 Apr 2009 7:11pm
@Bookfool: I especially love it when people stop and think on my blog, lol Tyan's a little sweetie and so are you ;) did I mention i opened a new Book Stuff blog ;)
@Lee: Thanks always Lee ;)
@Nicolas: merci beaucoup Nicolas :)
Janice Thomson from Canada
Excellent B&W Lorraine. I'm with Kathy; looks like a dock is loose. Great capture.

Roman from Thunder Bay, Canada
I love the detail in b&w, but I can't figure out what this is ??? ... a part of a dock ???
cheers
Roman

@Roman: You got it! don't know what broke exactly but I blame it on the ice ;) Thanks a lot Roman!
@vu@granby - Wolfgang: merci beaucopu Wolfgang :)
Michael Rawluk from Williams Lake, BC, Canada
MOre of the damned ice. Very nicely done, Lorraine. B+W works perfectly.

MontereyJohn from Salinas, California, United States
Hmmm, ice did a number on a dock. Yep, that's why I moved to California :)
28 Apr 2009 12:52am
@MontereyJohn: California dreaming has always been my favourite Mama's and the Papa's song...but I have to say and admit that I love Canada's 4 Seasons, although I wish winter were a little less long and a little less cold ! Thank a lot John :)
amy from Nanaimo, BC, Canada
