The Broken Mirror River

The river in my new town has only once completely froze over in 1963. So this weekend has been a huge talking point! I missed the opportunity to capture it as it was completely set and looked like a pure white walkway :( But I went down today and it was the most amazing sight! The weather had gotten a bit warmer as the sun had decided to make an appearance, so the river started to thaw out making the ice brake apart. It developed into a scene like a broken mirror with the shards of ice melting and reflecting the forrest around it! Simply stunning these pictures don't even do it justice.

 

Dear Snow..

You are so beautiful to sit and daydream at, especially when you set on the branches, ferns and plants of mother nature oh so perfectly, that I have the strong desire to capture you with my camera. But you are too cold! You make my toes numb and my cheeks and nose rosey! I have to wrap up extra warm to keep you from giving me the flu but I do appreciate you very much, just please go away until next christmas again!

With love,
Daisy
