Another Wintry Wednesday Walk
A couple of weeks ago I published a Wednesday walk of everything in my yard in upstate New York covered in ice. Boy was it both a beautiful and a treacherous day. The trees were groaning, cracking and shedding limbs under the weight of the ice every thing was encased in.
The next day I went out and shot a bunch more photos. Everything was still covered in ice, but somehow looked very different from the day before. Here are some of those.
Some of my favorite shots are of the view at my feet. This one tickles me fancy. When I look at it I feel like my eyes are being massaged. Those colors!
I've posted a number of shots of this maple tree in Wednesday Walks - it's right outside my front door. My picture does not begin to capture the splendor it presented to me on this day. Try to enhance it for yourselves. I find tipping my screen toward me helps it pop.
Every square foot of my yard, and for as far as I could see, was covered with shards of ice that looked exactly like shards of glass. I couldn't get a photo to sparkle like my world did that day but I do like this photo, another of the wondrous things I often see at my feet.
The day just got more and more magnificent as it progressed. Adding to the visual radiance, the ice on everything was crackling as it froze back up after semi-thawing in the sun. It was a very beautiful sound, tinkling and magical. I wish you could have been there. I'm really glad I was.
My final photo is of just a few days ago.
I take all my photos with my android phone. I certainly am impressed by the images a good camera can take of the surface of the moon, and sorely wish I could do that too, but I love this one of the recent wolf moon. In pfutzing with this photo, I learned the power potential of black and white.
I value your company highly.
Here is my post of photos from the day before most of these were shot.

I guess it's a small world.
I live in upstate New York too. 🙂
Beautiful Wednesday walk!

Thank you! I'm just a bit north of NYC. You? I've lived in the southern tier, the north country and central NY too.
Super cool! I'm in Syracuse.
West side of Owasco lake, 270 years in the family. I wrote a 31 sentence story somewhat about it a couple days ago. It was a really good story. Futuristic but all too real.
I like futuristic things ;)
I'll give it a read in the morning when my neurons are firing at full capacity.
Have a great night! :)
You captured the beauty of the icy day so well love all these shots
Thanks for joining Wednesday Walk :)
It's always my pleasure.
👍🙂👍
Great photos. I've never seen ice in little glass shards like that.
I hadn't either. It was quite weird. And even though it was everywhere on the ground, I couldn't really see where it had fallen from the trees.
I have picked your post for my daily voting initiative! Keep it up and Steem on!
Thank you so much! Really appreciate the support!
Shards of glass, shards of ice... a big old tree that defies your efforts to capture it in all its magnificence...what you do show us is about as much magnificence as we can handle, so it's all good! Fabulous Photos!!!
I think about getting myself a real camera, then remember that @goat-girlz got one, made one post with it and gave us SPECTACULAR photos, but we haven't heard from her since. Do you have any other contact with her? I miss her!
Ohhh no, I have not heard from her- @goat-girlz, where are you, and HOW are you???

such great impressions :))
Winter is no doubt a beautiful season. It is intimidating, but if one is well protected from the cold, one can appreciate unique phenomena and beauty.
Your photographs are superb
Those trees😍
Lucky you indeed
I can see why that maple tree has been featured multiple times 😊
I'm glad that you enjoyed your walk, and your pictures are beautiful captures of what is obviously a very cold day. I'm also glad I'm not in that cold! :) It's supposed to be 39 degrees F overnight next Tuesday or Wednesday where I live in the south, and that's WAY colder than I would like!
I'm highly allergic to cold weather!

I LOVE this place
I love the images of the frosted trees. Still feels like the holidays on your photos. Wish it was vacation all over again.
Oh, that first photo of the leaves covered in ice and snow is awesome!

Which reminds me i need to go and walk NOW
Lovely captures on your walk @owasco. Ice and snow can be treacherous underfoot but make beautiful scenery.
Love the black and white of the moon.
I love your photos! Thanks for sharing this with us
Beautiful photos here and I can hear the tinkling sound of the ice my friend.
Blessings!
Nature can sure create such beautiful scenes as it did with the glazing of ice shown in your photos.
Must have been magical (and rather treacherous for moving around!) The sound of the ice crackling too!
We always enjoyed the chinkling of the ice when it was in the last days of breaking up on the lakes!
thanks for sharing some of your beautiful winter scenes!
@owasco The nature you reflect leads us to immeasurable peace. Thanks for sharing.
Great photos @owasco 💕
