@kus-knee (The Old Dog)
Thank you for posting @kus-knee.
Steemians appreciate these contests....a lovely way to introduce one to Steemit.
Thank you for the opportunity to participate.
Wishing you and the contestants all the best.
Thank you to @country-girl for suggesting this photograph.
Cheers.
Spiky and sharp, cool photo!
This is so funny @bleujay. I think I called it :)
Nicely done. Ice daggers! :)
Thanks for your submission!
What if you live in a cold country?
Have you ever been to Jakutsk?
Temperature: -41 Celsius degrees.
I've never been there but I lived in a freezer for the first 35 years of my life. Do you know what the freezer was called? Canada!
While I was reading your answer, I thought the refrigerator was your Manü!
But she is your guardian wife that drives your dreams.
Best wishes, R
Hey now. I live in a freezer. :) It's very nice here, sometimes. ☃️
I'm often home sick so that should tell you something! :)
What are you homesick for in particular? Tim Horton Coffee? The buzz around the lake? Friday the 13th in Dover? Want me to take a photo of somewhere for you?
there the avatar app becomes handy! :-)
hey @bleujay
i agreed with your thought and well wished to @country-girl, its nice achievement
Amazing image @bleujay. Love the contrast the sharp crystal sword has with the abstract background. 🦋
Are those rock formations behind the icicle? The background could make a photo all by itself. Very nice composition.
Here's my entry:
I hope you like it.
This is brilliant and worth a serious upvote too! ;) Thanks for sharing.
Namaste :)
Lovely photograph @oldtimer.
All the best to you.
Cheers.
Nature's graceful art, i love it!
Beautiful ice feathers!
That's pure magic!
That is beautiful!
This is beautiful. I like the feather-like ice crystals.
Here's my entry!! Hope you like it.
Blurred Lines
I like it. Very Canadiana!
Ice skating rink? Lovely lines @countrygirl. 🦋
Thank you @allyinspirit. I just saw your entry too....frosty roses :)
Oh to answer your question....yes, an outdoor skating rink - actually a bike path that gets frozen over in the winter. It's very nice. That's my husband and our granddaughter....well their reflections :)
Your granddaughter in the red. And I can just make out that they are holding hands now. Beautiful. 🦋
They are!! I wish I could show her face but I have to respect privacy boundaries. She is angelic and lovely and has an open heart.
Lovely entry........ @countrygirl.
All the best.
Cheers.
Thank you @bleujay. Cheers back at you :)
This made me smile. I hope you had fun at the ice rink!
Thank you so much @hollyup. We did.
it is the contrast from the vagueness of the shades of the persons at the ice with the memory of the sharpness of the blades of skates, that makes this so special, I like it.
