Thanks for your patience with my lack of posts. My work life almost completely consumes the month of January.
I did have the chance one very cold, windy January evening, to catch the sky begin to brighten with colour as the sun disappeared over the far shore. The wind had been howling all day and had created wave-like ripples on the frozen, snowy lake surface. I knew the streaks of colour might build then vanish in a short time but exposure in the frigid air painfully slowed time.
The shot I took as I headed in to warm up will serve as our February desktop calendar. Enjoy. Alternate screen resolutions can be found here.

Road trip
January finds us on the road as we market our fly-in fishing business in the mid west US. Technology has advanced to the point that we are able to manage our office from our smart phones. The photo below, taken with my iPhone, along with this post is being created and uploaded in a WordPress app!
on frozen pond
As I post, the truncated 2012-13 NHL season start is still unknown. Meantime, the purest form of the game continues on ponds and lakes and rinks throughout the country.
winter solstice
May you see the sun at some time on this shortest day of the year.
turning point
it only takes one cold, wet day in August to remind us that summer’s end is near.
(un)real colour
Some nights the setting sun turns the sky the most amazing shades of pink.
Rarely, do we get this vibrant a violet.
