You can see a few different stages of ice on the surface of the lake.

Photo of the Day 1/16/16 - Icy Stream

Happy New Year everyone! It's been a couple weeks since my last 'Photo of the Day'. I am continuing the nature/winter theme today.

I really like the strange patterns that are created in a partially frozen stream...

Photo of the Day - 12/23/15 - Rain in the Woods

Photo taken at West Hartford Resovoir. As you can see I have really been enjoying photographing trees the fall/winter. Hopefully we'll get some snow soon.

Photo of the Day - 12/21/15 - Foggy Morning

This is probably the last one from this foggy set of photos. I'm hoping to get some similar shots with snow this winter.

Photo of the day - 12/20/15 - Foggy Hill

Another foggy morning nature walk photo to go with the last few I've posted.

I like how the hill behind the tree disappears into the fog. What is at the bottom?

Photo of the Day - 12/19/15 - Monument in the Fog

This a monument to Father Jerzy Popieluszko who was a priest and anti-communist activist in Poland who was abducted and killed in 1984 by communist government agents. It is located in Walnut Hill Park in New Britain Connecticut (about 2 blocks from my apartment). I walk around this park often and shot this photo on a foggy morning about a week ago. I thought it was interesting how the framework of the flame sculpture complemented the leaf-less winter trees.

A stone next to the monument is inscribed with the Polish "Zlo Dobrem Zwyciezaj" (Good Shall Vanquish Evil)

Photo of the day - 12/17/15 - Old Woman in the Fog

Something new I will be doing in order to keep myself engaged with this blog and keep posting new photos as I rebuild and restructure my website is to start posting a 'Photo of the day' as often as possible. These may be planned out conceptual photos or just random shots that I enjoy.

My first 'Photo of the day' is this shot of an old woman walking in the park on a foggy morning earlier this week. I was walking around the park by my apartment with my camera before work photographing the foggy landscape and took this random shot of the old woman walking which after downloading the photos from my camera and seeing it larger became my favorite one.

To me she looks like a witch from a fairy tale or mythological story walking through some haunted forest.
