Beautiful shots, Neil. Love the first and the one right before the Mallards. There is beauty all around us in this world.

Thanks James. Agreed on there being beauty all around. I sometimes get too focused on birds and wildlife, I forget to appreciate what's right in front of me.

Incredible words and photos. Vey Taoist. Everything is the same just in different shapes and forms, expressions of the whole. Love the ice flowers!

Wish I were at the Nemaha and at the Lake too. The poetry is as lovely as the photos. What a world!

Thanks Michael and much appreciated. Going to try and get some more Nature photos and expand my thinking and vision. I get too focused on birds and wildlife sometimes.

Beautiful pics and words! I certainly haven't seen frozen waves here on the west coast, so thanks for sharing.

Thanks Lindsay and much appreciated! I'm hoping to get some more in the near future while we still have ice here in Ottawa.

That will be lovely. I enjoy getting ice pics here, but its rare here for there to be much freezing on any larger bodies of water.
