Still, with the sun shining, I thought it looked nice enough to stop and snap a few. These first two were on our approach into Appleton, looking downriver,
We crossed the bridge and turned upriver before meandering away from the river. I liked the view of the house across the river, between the trees with the footprints (mine) leading toward the river. ↓
Now looking upriver where there was a fair bit of mist. ↓
Looking back toward the car from about where I took the previous photo. ↓
It was a very cold day, but it didn't have the same wind chill as the previous day and with the sun it was quite pleasant to drive about. With the battery recharged (until the next day — I guess it is time to replace it) we headed back to town to complete a few chores before heading home for a Valentine supper and a movie on Netflix — Gravity.
Beautiful photos. It would be interesting to see the same area in all the seasons. It looks so peaceful!
ReplyDeleteIt is very beautiful. I like winter but maybe not one as harsh as yours.
ReplyDeleteSome of these look like Christmas cards.
ReplyDeleteI've been lucky with my battery so far, but it's nearly 6 years old so may need replacing soon. But I keep my car in the garage and there have only been 2 or 3 really cold nights so far this winter.
ReplyDeleteThe mist on the water really looks spooky, but very pretty at the same time.
Winter snow against the water is very pretty. It still looks too cold for me. Love the footprints in the snow...yours?
ReplyDeletei'm feeling cold just looking at them. lovely nonetheless.
ReplyDeletethat bright blue sky sets off the barns and white snow nicely!
ReplyDeleteLovely photos . In the Paper and on the news there was photos of lake Ontario actually steaming in the cold snap as the water was still so warm . They say our lakes haven't had a true freeze this winter and I believe it as our Otter river and lake Erie are still flowing with no ice on them . is Thanks for sharing , have a good day !
