The wintering waterbirds are back! This male Wigeon leads the annual sail past.
Winter Pond
Ice No. 5
10:30 a.m.
Ice and snow on a mountain pond.
Funny, I remember how idyllic this pond looked back in June, 2013. Much colder and snowier up the mountain during our lake search. And desolate. Black and white seemed to tell the story.
This ends a look at ice this week on Salt Spring Photos. Hope you enjoyed it and are revelling in the rain.
Blackburn Lake
Ice No. 4
10 a.m. Blackburn Lake
Looks like Blackburn Lake has been frozen for some time. Cameron, my photo assistant, and I arrived to this sparking scene while searching for ice Sunday morning.

Ice # 3
This photo was made right along the shore, looking almost straight down. (the ice was new and thin on this lake)
Again, the bottom provided a warm coloured background while the sky added neutral and cool highlights.
Skyscape
Ice No. 2
The weather and light changed during my travels in search of ice on Salt Spring Lakes. More clouds in the sky here, but still some clear blue sections. And you can see rocks and leaves on the lake bottom.
The slightest change in viewing angle produced surprisingly different images; colour and detail.
Texture and pattern are the stars in this image.
