Photographer’s Note
"Strangers in the night exchanging glances
Wond’ring in the night
What were the chances we’d be sharing love
Before the night was through.
Something in your eyes was so inviting,
Something in you smile was so exciting,
Something in my heart,
Told me I must have you."
Everything was strange in that day - sky, clouds, ice-fishing fans in hope to catch last fish from lake, what is already started to thaw.
Maybe – the influence from solar eclipse?

Hi Ivars...
A very special landscape, captured in almost B&W... I agree, the mood is strange!
They should probably stop fishing right away, as there is water on top of the ice... never a good sign!
Well composed, excellent definition... Interesting, and well done!
Greetings,

Hello Ivars,
This is a great shot. Your poetry is making it totally different in meaning and sense.
The clouds and the snow influenced by the reflection where it is visible is looking great.
Good composition with good details and this lovely poem.
Thanks for showing this great moment.

Hi Ivars
YOu have conveyed a lovely moody atmosphere in this shot - the sky and the reflections give a sense of vastness and open space which I really like.

Hi Ivars,
I like this classic view but with a interesting atmosphere of emptiness and large spaces !
I also like the general grey colors and the cloudy sky !
Good evening !

Hi Ivars,
Although there is no central focus, this shot works very well. The overall ambience flows through the scene with wonderful lighting and shadow effects, as well as reflections and textures. The scene resembles a watercolour painting. Very fine work, Ivars.

hi Ivars, beautiful reflections, it's a very serene view, the black line of trees nicely divides the frame.
