PhotoHunt: a free choice

I was completely at a loss for what to choose for today.  I need guidelines, I need rules.  But I happened to look out of the window and noticed the effect of the early morning sun on the river, and here you are!









We've had some very cold nights close to freezing and some very sunny mornings.  Today was the first time I ventured out into the cold to take some pictures of the mist rising from the surface of the water.  As usual, they look better if you enlarge them.

  3. Very pretty reflections! I'm amazed by the mist though. I've never seen anything quite like that - we don't have nature like that. :D Oh I do wish we have some cold here. I'm sweating buckets!

  6. Its gotten quite cold here in Philly and two big storms this week, a little unusual for this time of year, too.

    Its looks as if there's been a lot of rain, with the trees touching the water; Beautiful pictures, especially capturing the mist from the water. Even though I live close to a river I've never photographed it early in the morning. I don't think I would ever be able able to get a photo without any cars on the bridges.

  8. Having no theme made you go out in the cold for these? We should have no theme more often.

  10. I also felt lost by the guideless topic... but you have posted a treasure this week! I love the third photo, of the warm mist rising. I miss that, from once living in the mountains.

    Enjoy your weekend!
