Once there was a lake by caterina

Once there was a lake

The lake of Misurina, in the Dolomites, is now frozen and the ice is covered with snow. There are signs everywhere cautioning that the ice is thin and that people should not walk on it. To no avail, as you see. The big building in the background is a pediatric hospital for children with chronic conditions: asthma in particular because at this altitude there are no pollens nor other molds. The quality of assistance is high, therefore we used to send the residents to stay there for a while in order to become familiar with the disease and its therapy.
Instant fav. Wonderful composition, and interesting info.

Wow... I never would have thought that structure was a hospital. Looks like it should be a fancy hotel in that beautiful setting.

You don't really have to go far to see how stupid people can be. We had a similar situation last year when the Delaware River froze. There were spots where the river was still flowing yet, people walked fairly close to the edge to get pictures. Good shot!
