Before the deep freeze came down upon us, the river (North Saskatchewan River) was still flowing. There were these wonderful chunks of ice floating along bumping into bigger ice chunks and ice islands.
Mr amy and I are off to Banff this weekend. We're not skiers but love Banff never-the-less. I'll pre-post but won't be able to visit while we're gone because... as you know... my laptop is still at the repair shop. Will catch up on Monday. TGIF kids!!!
Just tell me what you think. I'm a big girl.... I won't cry for long. ;-)

You have caught an effect of movement. The b/w works very well in this photo.

Cool! It's funny that I was gone skiing today too. Not actually skiing as I can't, but rather photographing them. :D The weather is warm and there's snow here. I can't see how that can be!

Very beautiful . As beautiful as snow and ice is I can't wait until spring comes!

Hope the two of you have a great time in Banff!

The water looks like it is in motion.

I love the movement and the darkness of the water versus the stark white of the ice. Nice work. Have fun on your trip together.

Yes, the B&W gives this a lot more energy than a colour version would have. (Is that a shark fin?) :>
