Sun Before the Snow

Last week before the snow, the camera captured a beautiful winter sunrise over the pond. The pink ray in the middle is probably cause by the sun hitting the lens almost straight on. A much different view than the snow that covered this area this week. One critical piece of equipment this time of year is a set of pond gloves. It is a constant battle with Mother Nature who throws all kind of junk like leaves in the pond and me pulling all that junk out. With the water just over 40 degrees direct contact with skin is to be avoided whenever possible.
