Week #11 P52

As I've said before, I love winter landscapes, but I'm collecting too many snow-covered trees and snow-covered mountains and valleys.  However an early morning recent quick drive only a few miles from home resulted in some really icy images.  I can't decide between my two favorite ones, so I'll post both.  When I have my photobook printed at the end of the year, I will choose---or just print both!  By next week, I plan to have a photo from the west side of the state, where we'll be visiting our only grandchild (and her parents, of course!) for a few days.

The top one features frost-covered sprinkler wheel lines. The frost looks like sugar.

The second photo is of elk tracks wandering through one field ...and across a road into the field beyond.

P52 Sweet Shot Tuesday #26

It seems so difficult to find a subject to photograph these days; I'm not sure what has happened to me, but even my still life course has been a struggle.  I know that the unexpected heat wave has discouraged me from wandering outside, too.  I drive the same country roads near our town, trying to find a new subject.  This morning, it was this old sprinkler wheel line, rusty but still in use on land belonging to the lumber mill.  I'm linking up with Kent Weakley's P52 Sweet Shot Tuesday this week.
