I drove to Loveland to meet my sister for Sunday morning coffee and one of her special hugs. Sure needed the hug as my dashboard said it was 8 degrees. As I drove by Lake Loveland I was pleasantly surprised to see fog sitting above the lake. With the geese huddled up along the edge of the open water and the sun just coming up, I had to stop, take it all in and pull out my camera. This was not going to be a drive-by morning! Even though it was only 8 degrees I’m glad I stopped. And, when I got to the coffee shop my sisters hug was even more precious to me. Just after I got back in the car and started to drive away the geese lifted off. That would have been an awesome image. Next time.

Love that layered look, Monte. I would have had a hard time getting out of a nice warm car to photograph anything when it’s 8 degrees!

Thanks, John. Stragne but I never noticed the cold until I was back in the car. Of course I did not stay out that long either. 🙂

I couldn’t fully appreciate this photo until I looked at it on my larger screen. I love the mood here and how it really reflects the cold of the morning.
It sounds like we are all anxiously awaiting spring. I know I am! 🙂

Yep, bring it on, Tom! Thanks!
