Description

This pilgrim is coldly going to where no one has gone before :) Fascinating how nature creates art in a way that goes beyond my comprehension. No tracks in the snow of human activity, but only this little branch covered with snow-crystals mainly on side. It makes me kneeling down to shoot it and thank God for crafting this for me and showing it to me. Minolta X-700 (Fuji Sensia 100, 300 mm) Thanks for your attention and your always valuable comments

such a wonderful capture, jan-carel!!!! i love the detail you show in the snow crystals. this reminds me of an explorer with a huge backpack on his bag...hiking and scouting out the area. he needs somone there to help him share the load. it's so heavy on this back!!! incredible capture!!!

The ice crystals are very delicate. Just a breath of an animal could melt them or a breeze make the boundary indistinct. No one will get a patent for this. It is something that makes one happy to be a bit careful and even passive to find and preserve in an image this gift.
