I think that boat is made for a warmer season. It doesn't look like an ice breaker. Lovely image.

Gosh, you play snow photographically-speaking very well, there are shadows and that textural delight, bravo Suzanne :)

Philip from Joburg, South Africa

WOW! it does look cold those boats look worse for wear will they be ok afterwards ?

15 Mar 2009 3:26pm

@Philip: I doubt very much that it will look very good once the snow has melted. This is the only boat I've seen, on the entire lake, that was left in the water. Also, most owners "winterize" their boat with an airtight and waterproof plastic seal.

alex centrella from California, United States

great catch..makes me want to sip hot chocolate !
