Magical detail there Winnie. I must go back when there is a bit less snow and get up this valley.

This is wonderful Winnie. The crystalline ice floating in that blue within blue water is just enchanting. Beautiful work.

This is beautiful, Winnie. I like the contrast between the smooth water and the hard surface of the ice. The blue color and reflected light also adds a lot here.

Wow. This is really cool - no pun intended. The color palette is impressive as is the detail in the ice.
