I can't count the number of times I've photographed this tree over the years.

There's always the temptation to not bother because it's become something of a cliché.

That negative thinking had me almost driving past until I saw the light in the background. I immediately pulled over.

Not content with merely shooting from the road, I dutifully bush wacked to the lakeshore to wade out into those icy waters.

After about an hour of shooting at -4 °C I could no longer feel my feet but I didn't care.

I'd got the shot and the mile-wide smile on my face was totally worth a pair of numb feet.

Thanks for looking
Gavin
