Well I posted the before picture Weather Reporting The weather did come and brought wind of our 50knots which pushed the ice which had formed on the Lake and Piled in on the shores along the North Shore of Lake Erie, some sections had piles of crushed ice from the pounding waves, here where we live since the water is shallow we had huge ice chucks build up and pile on shore. When the wind stopped blowing we went over to see the bank and were surprised to see the ice piled 1/2 way up the 12' bank in front of our house. I took this photo from our deck.
Another storm is on its way to day, they are forecasting freezing rain and more snow.

Its winter!

Have a Great day and stay safe!

Hello Donna
It looks so cold.. I love the reflection of the sun on the open water in the BG....

keep warm spring is on its way... or so I'm told! :)

Looks like tomorrow for Tom....

Superbly captured Donna, almost monochrome. Lovely light with the rays quite visible, well composed and fine detail. The noise in the darker clouds adds to the gloomy effect. TFS,
David

Hi Donna,

A lake in front of your house really provides you with the must amazing views and light.
We have a huge inland sea called the IJsselmeer and there the same thing happens (happened) when it is a severe and cold winter. Lovely to see. But what I love most of all in this picture is the light. Just great.
