Thats ICE... in the WATER...

Man you live in a cold place :)

Nice photos... I would have used a CP to darken the sky though.. but that is just my taste

Thanks for the kind comments. :-)

Yes, it's ice, but not from today. :twisted: I took these last March and just found them a couple days ago.... :roll:

I don't have a CP yet. Haven't really felt the need for one, but figure I should get one, just to keep the economy going. :)

I do have some filters, I think, but not sure what they are, other than it's a Cokin system. Never used them. :?

The first one is a classic photograph, it will stand the test of time, off centre composition tone and mood is just right, where exactly is that? looks north americanish.

Thanks for the very kind comments, Wendell. :D

This lighthouse is located on the Detroit River, near downtown Detroit, Michigan, USA. The view in the photo is looking south across the river into Windsor, Ontario, Canada. It's the only area where a part of Canada is physically south of a part of the continental US. So, from here, Canadians are "down under" too. 8)
