Others in Quebec are also awaiting...and in Ohio the same...Two weekends before Xmas..wow this is a neat shot...Very nice . I used to watch Dick Goddard who is renowned for his weather knowledge and the Woolly Bear caterpillar. His massive missive is called Dick Goddard's Weather Guide for Northeast Ohio...

. When working for the newspapers I was at many of his informative gatherings on how weather and nature are tied together. I have many pictures and old newspaper... wonderful image of a time and place in your natural life on the lakes and nearby.

Hello Donna,
So what your saying is beauty your image, preceeds the storm. Sounds like your going to have to hunker down, how is the marine forecast for the captain? Splendid image Donna, thanks.

Hi Donna,
Wonderful shot with such gorgeous colours and such ominous things to come. The silhouetted trees in the FG adds a nice perspective. Excellent POV to portray this charming scenery and very nicely composed. Kudos.

Hello Donna,
Excellent composition of the horizon, the cloud and shorelines together with the trees. this together with the sky colors make a fine image. I wonder if the storm turned out as forcast.
Well done, thanks and have a good Sunday,

Hello Donna,
What a beautiful composition!
The view across the lake is magnificient, and indeed we both present sunrise this day...
An element that is capturing my eyes is the cloud formation in the horizon, maybe containing a surprise weather wise!

Wow Donna, I like your notes so much! We live quite same situations but in different ways. The problem here are not snow storm or wind but Ice Storm... By chance, we only had one this year but it needed the same preparation that what you described. We are awaiting over 40 cm of snow again and I'm very happy, usually snow storms are not a problem here...

This is a great capture and I like this sensibility you have to be able to gauge the weather. I hope that everything is going to be OK for you. This is different as you live so close to the water. Thanks,
Claudine

Hi Donna, great note on Canadian forecast for this storm going on now, beautiful picture showing so well the line of clouds entering our country. I really like these sunrise colours with the shadowed trees, the ice on the lake, everything is fabulous. Great POV, lovely colours and sharpness. Thanks for all this information!

Hello Donna,
What a awesome morning sunrise you had here with the beautiful Pink hue colouration but can feel the chilly coldness from the photo!
good low pov with depth, sharpness, vivid colour and details in the photo, I liked how you include the two leafless trees that makes a great perspective for the composition!
most of all, the very very useful notes regarding the weather condition in Canada!
my best regards and stay warm

Yep, "Red sky in the morning, sailors' warning". .. and I am complaining about our rainy forecast!!! Oh man, sounds like you are in for an interesting time.

Your photo is wonderful! I love that skinny band of dark cloud cutting across the pink sky. The light is beautiful as are the silhouetted trees against it.

Hello Donna

A super capture of this red sky in morning,sailors warning.
The composition is very well done,and the lighting and colours are super.
The Storm is here as we speak,and there have been problems along the Trans Canada hwy here in Cornwall.Traffic was rerouted for a few hours today due to an accident.
We are hunkered down ,Christmas tree blazing with lovely music and riding it out.
There is one band of very ominous looking clouds in this shot,nicely captured.

Hi Donna,
Amazing winter landscape!
I like very much the colours you were able to get on that incredible sky.
And the composition made with the leafless trees are so good Donna.
It's almost unbelievable that after this beautiful scene would come so threatening storm.
Congratulations and thanks for share it.
My best regards,
JM

Hi Donna,
The soft orange and pink hues of the early sun are very beautiful. But reading your note, the beauty might not bring much good. At least you are getting some excitement.
The single layer of cloud is most interesting. I this hanging above land or is it moving toward it?
Normally I am not a huge fan of the halo effect around trees when a large brush for extra brightness is used, but this time it actually created a nice creative touch.
