January Sunset ~ January 9

New London, Minnesota

Not one of my best, but I liked the way the airplane contrail almost perfected matched the line of ice and water on the Mill Pond.

People have asked about the extent and thickness of the ice on the Pond. The Mill Pond is created by a dam (originally for a flour mill) on the Middle Fork of the Crow River. Thus the Pond is essentially just a wide spot in the river; it freezes last where the current flows. Even with all the open water evident in this photo there are places on the Pond where the ice is more than a foot (about 1/3 a meter) thick.
