Natural landscapes: the sweet sounds of a cold winter

VERMILION RIVER, KOOTENAY NATIONAL PARK, BRITISH COLUMBIA
Finding open water in the midst of a Rocky Mountain winter is always a blessing, so I made my way down to the shoreline to find sweet compositions like this.
A key to making this picture work, for me, is the snow on the trees. Without that, I’m not sure I would have waded through the snow to find this photogenic spot.
