Welcome back DJ! All the water is frozen in this shot, right? This is an awesome picture - I like the reflections on the mountains in the ice.

How delightful (for us) that you're back! This is a wonderful introduction to your adventure. I almost sttod on my head to see "the sky is falling" ... I know, i know ... it's just me. Whereever you go, there is a sense of "being" there, your presence, which somehow allows the viewer (or me anyhow) to also be totally present in viewing your subject. You invite us in. Welcome back. Take your time.

@San G.: thanks very much Sandy -- sorry for the lag in reply -- i seem to have a lot of back commenting to do, never seems to get done. :) but now that i am going through them again, i really appreciate all the wonderful comments. cheers!!
