…when the snow is melting and the ice on the river is breaking up!

Spring is puddles of water all over...

Spring is bright light and pleasant sunshine...

Spring is a bench by the riverside where we can sit and contemplate life..!

Good morning my friend,
very nice image, spring is coming,
beautifull scene, excellent done!

Hi Pablo,
I like spring as it gives the feeling of new beginning ... and a reprieve from the cold winter. Unfortunately, were heading towards winter here in NZ. Wonderfully captured and composed. I like the horizontal banding of colors ... quite pleasant visually. Well done! tfs
Cheers,
Renier

hello pablo! nice POV and the bench breaks the monotony. TFS!

Hi Pablo

I like the composition into 4 horizontal layers, with the vertical tree at right linking & anchoring all 4 together. The slightly oe snow doesnt bother me, & is a small price to pay, for the superb graphism & contrast. Tfs!

Well composed. Beautiful natural light. I liked exposure and lighting a lot.
Best wishes,
Achim

Beautiful and peaceful dear Pablo. Nice comp on the bench and the river and some remaining snow.
Nice colours and sharpness.

Cheers :)

Hi Pablo!
Wonderful late winter scenery. Amazing moment. Spring, spring, spring! Nice take, very nice.
Cheers!

Hi Pablo,
Northern Europe's winter seems to end about the same times and the Northeastern U.S. despite it much higher latitude. Winter does not give in easily to spring fighting till the last bit of snow and ice has melted. I love the blue puddles near the inviting bench. Nice palce to sit and hear the ice crack!

Beautiful compo in blue and white. There is yet plenty of snow, there are no leaves on the trees, but the spring is here, you can feel it ! The light is different, and the river has a special tone of blue.

May be, but it seems winter for me:) lovely composition full of snow, splendid light, very well done, ciao Silvio

Okay, that sounds and looks as if Spring has arrived and I suppose you have the feeling it is high time already Pablo!

A lovely sunny picture with trees slowly awaking and ice and snow melting.

Hi Pablo,
Nice Spring photo that you have here. The FG is a bit busy with all the branches but that is minor. You get a nice sense of end of winter. well captured shot.

A lovely picture accompanied by a lovely poem Pablo. I like the partially obstructed POV from behind the still bare branches; a small, but not insuperable, barrier to contentment?!

"Spring is a bench where you can sit..." and make plans for the fishing season!!
I see on this picture a four-layered horizontal array, from the forest to near riverside; its pristine beauty being protected of vandalism by branches at foreground.
