nice words to go with an imaginative image – it goes with your motto ( i lack for a better word here)-where observation and imagination meet nature in poetry
Your words and images are perfectly attuned, but, as the last commenter noted, never sentimental. Thank you for your daily offering, which helps me center myself in the morning.
Don’t forget the melted ice and snow that fills the streams and rivers! I miss the snow that I had when I lived in Pa. Have been living in Houston thirty years now!
A delight for the eyes …
nice… yes, melt!
Mud mud mud everywhere! Melt away
Mud! Beautiful! EXCEPT when it follows torrential rain and 32 degree C heat

eye candy
A great shot and one I have been looking for. Well done
Elegant.
Yes, mud: too often we want to see only what’s “pretty,” but the wider view is much richer than that. As you report.
Superb shot !
lol…yes it is that time of year…great photo!

An ugly time of year is made beautiful

Lovely – and so clear i can feel the cold!
Perfect transient sculpture.
Wonderfully composed shot.
Thanks for the “Like” over at “The Gooseyard.” From your photography it looks like you enjoy being out in the winter landscape as much as I do!
I like the composition of this photo.
Lovely image… and the thought of mud… primordial at that… nice to feel spring!
