One of those mornings when you look out the window and think: well, I guess I have to go get my camera.

Very nice shot, Sporgon. Well done.

Abandoned farm machinery with grove of Manitoba maples (AKA box-elder or ash-leaf maple) to the right. The white mass behind the trucks isn't snow. It's a group of grain 'bags' for storage in the field. I wasn't certain about the lower right corner of the picture where I've caught a bit of the fore side of the pond. I have a shot where it isn't there, but I like the intimation of the roundish shape and size of the pond given by the thin slice of the foreshore. Some may find it distracting, however. Anyway...

Nice scene. Love the rich greens. I've always been partial to lambs. Unfortunately, where I live brown is the dominant colour at this time of year. I read somewhere that brown is the least favoured colour.
