Description
A major ice storm just before Christmas in 2013 paralyzed much of the greater Toronto area. The image was taken on Frenchman's Bay in Pickering, Ontario. Though this image shows the beauty of the ice-covered trees and grasses, at the time the beauty was often difficult to appreciate.
The storm actually swept through the U.S. midwest, and the provinces of Ontario and Quebec leaving an estimated half million people without power! Emergency crews spent long hours up to and over Christmas getting the lights back on.

In addition to the banner, I am adding this more permanent recognition of its FEATURE on the homepage of A TREE OR TREES IN BLACK AND WHITE. I try mightily to feature only images that would be at home in a juried competition. No doubt that this image fits that bill. CONGRATULATIONS! And consider adding your image to DISCUSSIONS "Please post your featured photograph here" for greater, long-lasting visibility.
