Daily Prompt - Transformation - Dutch goes the Photo!

Today’s theme in the WordPress Daily Prompt is Transformation. Of course, there’s more than one angle to take on this topic, so I decided to go into the landscape direction for this one.

Transformation happens in Nature quite regularly, as seasons, weather and time combine to draw ever changing scenery around us. Some changes are almost imperceptible, while others are quite dramatic.

In ‘Blue Pond‘, we see a number of factors come together, as the Winter season has left its mark, while weather and time have changed the trees around the pond. Nature draws us a complex tableau with beauty in many elements.

Hope you enjoy!

God, this photo is magnificent Frank. I’ve never seen a blue pond that looks like this. And what a lovely representation of transformation. Thank you.

  Thanks, Debbie! Yes, it’s an unusual view with all the blue tones.

That’s a great shot and perfectly addresses the theme.The colour of the water and the ice around the edge certainly point to a cold day, which contradicts the blue sky — here when there’s a blue sky, it’s usually a nice warm/hot day; even today, in the 2nd week of winter, the blue sky brings with it a warm temperature.

  Thank you! In winter a clear sky means cold, as radiative cooling chills things pretty well!
