Crystals of Bear Creek








Crystals of Bear Creek
 
 
 
I took a walk along Bear Creek this week.
Alone in Townsend Park  for a closer look.
Sunny, blue skies, calm,  fourteen degrees.
Gratefully spending this precious gift of time.
Giving the Glory to God  for His creation.
 
Down on my knees on the frozen ground.
Leaning over the edge of the stream bank.
Cautiously hovering over paper-thin ice.
Wading upstream in the cold, clear current.
I want to share this collection of gifts with you:

    Thank you. It was fun getting this close. I got so focused, I didn't even notice the cold.

    You can have it. How shall I send it?

  3. FN, great photographs, all of them. I admire you for venturing out at 14 degrees! I have done it at 35 degrees only to return home with fingers half frozen.

  5. Now I know I should take my camera with me everywhere I go. I am for sure going to find interesting things to shoot.

  6. That's it Santiago:

    Keep your battery charged, and camera ready.

    I was out shooting more crystals this morning... the temperature climbed from minus 8, to minus 2 degrees! My fingers didn't last long, but it was another marvelous piece of creation to witness, and to share.
