Watching Ice Melt

The last few mornings I've been outside early in the blue glow of dawn, checking to see if the ice has melted completely off the pond. The snow stayed early this year, forming a pebbled crust and I missed seeing the ice forming, with its wonderful patterns of wings. I have been so hoping that the ice would melt and then freeze again before the snow came, but this morning there is a white blanket covering the pond.

Short Days

Less than 2 weeks to the solstice and it hard to believe the sun can move any further south. It casts long lines of tree shadow over the land while it fills the studios with light. The pond with it lack of snow has been particularly beautiful in the slanted soft light.
