Passionate Canadian hockey players start here, he shoots, he scores!! You can see mom and dad and their kids playing on a shoveled patch of a frozen lake in the middle of nowhere. One nice feature is the shelter where they can change out of their boots and into their skates, as the wind can be quite ferocious on a large lake like this.
Thank you for comments and favs on yesterdays photo "Brrrrr", I really love enjoy reading them!
Now I've tried ice fishing - but choosing to go out here with those winds - that takes commitment! What a terrific shot So well composed with all that white space.
WOW...are you sure you are not in the arctic! Amazing images...so cold and snowy!!! WOWzie. Nice that they can enjoy being outside. I am afraid I would be hunkered inside...though you probably get a lot of sunshine? maybe?
I couldn't make out whether this was a set up scene with toys or it was really happening so I have kept coming back to it. This is the kind of shot that makes the viewer think. Well done and a fav!
Super bit of Canadiana! The warming hut is a nice touch - would have loved one like it when I was a kid. I can remember skating on frozen creeks until there was no feeling left in my toes, despite several pairs of socks.
