Seasonal Changes

As November takes hold in Canada, the clocks rewind one hour and darkness falls long before dinner.  The cold winter nights bring lower temperatures and ice is once again a permanent part of our landscape. 

Yesterday I made a short three hour circuit around Kananaskis  looking for icy opportunities. Early in the season the ice is a welcome change, not so much after four more months of it. 

One of my first shots of a successful day was this icicle chandelier at the north end of Barrier Lake, sitting above a burnt umber driftwood log it provided a beautiful foreground to the stark frame of Mt Baldy in the distance. 

I actually ended up getting a good soaking from a heavy spray of freezing cold water thanks to the wind driven waves.  A negative thing perhaps, but without the spray this chandelier wouldn't exist so I'll take my soaking like a man and move on. 

Expect to see more icy landscapes in the months ahead as we move into winter, isn't change a wonderful thing.
