Alan, great examples for this task, the Reflection Lake sunrise is my favorite and an exceptional landscape. I love your other examples as well especially the Canary Springs image!Fun theme - here goes.

As a finale - 4 states with Silver Lake down in front and partially frozen; snow covered Mt. St. Helens in the distance and water vapor in a small cloud at the edge of the scene. Not visible from this view St. Helens was emitting steam from a growing dome inside of the crater in 2008 when this was taken.

Ken, I like the falling snow captured in your first image—and if I HAD to choose a favorite I would be the Derwentwater image or the dramatic Glencoe image. All are very well captured and thank you for sharing.It doesn't snow a lot here but I should be able to find a view images. Ken

John - I made a mistake when I put my images together for this and accidentally deleted the Canary Springs image and showed a shot from Shepherd's Dell in the Columbia River Gorge insteadAlan, great examples for this task, the Reflection Lake sunrise is my favorite and an exceptional landscape. I love your other examples as well especially the Canary Springs image!
Doug, your second image Moraine Lake is my favo rite—a truly beautiful image! The Hector Lake is also very well captured, a beautitular sight.Another clever choice, John. Here are my contributions.

Trent, you’ve shared three interesting images—especially favor the second image with the sweep of the river in this snowy scene. I also like the close up of the projection of ice above the water.Here are my contributions to today's task.
This boat sits all winter on open water on our river waiting for summer when they take tourists up the river.

Dan, very nice images you’ve shared, I especially favor the snowy Bristlecone Pine image, as well as your fourth and fifth images as favorites—great images.
Love all three images Jameel—and I have two favorites, your first and second images. The Canmore capture is especially well seen and captured and your Johnston Canyon falls is another special images as well—love the falling “liquid” water next to the “solid” ice surrounding it.A fun task this thursday John and as usual a very creative image as well.
My contributions for this week. Three images from north of the border.
