There is only one day left, always starting over: it is given to us at dawn and taken away from us at dusk.

I love winter, and I love snow even more. What I love less is temperatures falling down to  -18°C, especially when it’s 8 am and I am ready to go out with my camera… though I perfectly know that without those temperatures I wouldn’t have been able to rejoice at the view of two iced lakes. What a fascinating scene!

Last week I spent a funny and beautiful morning photographing around two lakes not far from where I live. It started out as a cloudy morning, then slowly turned into a glorious sunny day. Though it was freezingly cold, I was so wrapped up in joy at taking photos that I didn’t feel it that much (or was it because of the 3 sweaters and warm heavy trousers I was wearing?!)

These are some shots of the day. Put on your coat, it’s going to be very cold!

Beautiful amalgam of colors with the single drop of water on the feather of the majestic peacock.

This photo was taken in the backyard of my home when the garden wastes was being burnt, due to which smoke was created, and this lead to the SUN’s RAYS being perfectly visible…
