Very cold day!! (ice pictures, more in #17!!)

The day before yesterday, I went for a walk and took my camera with me. It was ice-cold, subzero temperatures, but sunny, so I took some pics. Make sure you're wearing warm clothes while watching, or have a cup of hot tea, because even looking at the pics will make you feel cold! :D

Amazing photos!! You can actually see the facets on the ice crystals. And the landscape scenes - breathless!!!!! :)

WOW!!! Those are amazing pictures!:eek:

How Beautiful!!!

I love looking at your pictures!! You take such great ones!

Very very nice pictures. I especially love the 1st and 3rd one!

Beautiful pictures, Kirsten. :) We had the same weather here in the morning and I considered going out to take some pictures, but decided it was too cold. ;)

My feet are COLD now!!

I was not dissapointed in the pictures, they do look cold and beautiful!

How I love those crystals- it's cold here too, and not much snow as well.

Beautiful pictures! I love the crystals, and the landscapes too!

Fantastic pics, Kirsten!!!!

The landscape photos were beautiful. You did a very good job spotting and snapping pics of the ice on the leaves lol ;)

Those ice crystals are just breathtaking. Beautiful photos, you've really captured the some great scenes.

Stunning pictures!! I think we broke a record today (or came close to it)....It was 70 something here in Dallas.....I can live with it!!

Wonderful pictures, I really like all the little details you can see on the leafs and I like the way you have positioned them.
You have a very good eye for photography :)

Gorgeous photos! You did an amazing job, as always!!!

Wow, Kirsten! Your pictures should be in a book or on a calendar. You take such breathtaking pictures!

Thank you very much for your comments! :) I've waited for years to make some "winter photos", but there was barely snow and ice the last couple of years. LOL Now it all seems to come this winter! And Boy, it's cold!

Yesterday a friend and I went for another walk, and here are some of the pics I took. We walked the bank of a river that was actually frozen, which didn't happen for a long time here. :)

I felt so sorry for the poor swan! His feet must have been so cold on the frozen water!

If I tell Siegmar: there are some new pictures from Kirsten he comes running.
And what he said was: "Eine wirklich gute Fotografin." :)
I fully agree- like the atmosphere of your pictures:)

Ah, thanks! :o Please tell him "Danke" from me. :)

Kirsten

Amazing pictures, as always!!! You definitely need to get published and paid for your work, Kirsten!

I bet if you put together a calendar, you'd get people to buy it. Hint, hint.

Very beautiful new pics! I love the frozen river and the swan photos!

Beautiful pix! Love those macro shots! :D:love: That first set looks like Hoar Frost, was it? I saw the fog in the landscape shots and it matches conditions I've seen when we've had Hoar Frost.

I'd love to get a crack at some Hoar Frost myself as I now have a lens on the DSLR that will do macro. ;)

Hey, that's a great idea! I could have a PT calendar in one room and a Kirsten calendar in another!

Thank you. :)

And yes, the first ones are Hoar Frost, it's been a very cold day.

Well, having calendars printed is so expensive! I simply don't have the money. The bad thing about starting a business is that you've got to have some money to invest. :rolleyes:

Kirsten

Indeed - your photos are beautiful. I loved the landscape scenes so much that I set one as my desktop wallpaper (the 2nd one in the first set). Hope you don't mind! :p

Those are wonderful. We had a bit of an ice cover here, too, a couple days ago. I meant to get outside and do the same thing you did. I don't know if I could have gotten any like yours, though, they are gorgeous!
